Product Details

T-Connector 3-Wire System with Circuit Protected Converter by CURT®. For Models without Tow Plug, 3-wire System, Location: S3/S4. A CURT custom wiring connector (sometimes called a T-connector) is a simple, plug-and-play electrical device that eliminates the need for cutting, splicing and soldering when installing vehicle-to-trailer wiring. Most vehicles do not come ready to tow. Unless your vehicle has a towing package, it is probably not equipped with a trailer wiring connector. This is where CURT's custom wiring connectors come into play.

A custom wiring connector uses a single original equipment plug to plug into a special socket provided by your vehicle. Though this option is not available on every vehicle, some automotive manufacturers design their vehicles to be easily equipped for towing by supplying a socket, integrated into the vehicle's electrical system, to readily accept a custom wiring connector. With a CURT custom wiring connector, there is no need to tap into the taillight assembly because a special socket is already provided.

Even if you've already hitched your trailer up, you're not actually ready to hit the road. What you also need to do is ensure the trailer has enough power to run turn signals and brake lights. That's why you need this T-connector. CURT applies SMT (surface mount technology) to any T-connector with a built-in converter, which allows for lower resistance, less heat generation and longer life cycle. The majority of CURT T-connectors require neither splicing nor cutting or taping, however if the length is not appropriate, you can cut the connector to appropriate length and splice it to the tail light wiring. Custom-designed to precisely fit your vehicle, this T-connector is created to deliver unsurpassed levels of performance, reliability and durability.

CURT® 56165 - T-Connector (3-Wire System with Circuit Protected Converter)
Everything fits perfectly. I highly recommend that one views the video showing how to install this kit. It takes patience and nimble fingers to uncouple and recouple the "T" connectors, especially on the right side (passenger).
