Trailer Light Bracket

Mounts easily under the vehicle and seems to work well. I wrapped the electronics box in 3mm plastic and tape and used some zip ties to keep everything securely in place.

Pros
  • Good Thing
Cons
  • Expensive

Look for stock plugs

Make sure you have the two closed plugs behind the left rear fender. Definitely plug and play. I wish it wasn't in the car. Easy to install, but winter salt can shorten its lifespan. The time will show.

Pros
  • Delivery was very quick
Cons
  • So far so good

INSIDE vehicle installation warning?

Connected and working without any problems. I'm giving a few stars because the electronics don't seem to be sealed well as it comes with stern warnings before installing it in the car, which would be quite difficult as the plugs connect under the car. Also, the instructions were pretty much useless.

Pros
  • Everything OK!
Cons
  • Doubtful purchase for the elderly

Do not buy. Low quality. doesn't last.

works great. Double-sided tape didn't even try to stick, and that was on a clean surface. It probably shouldn't even be enabled if it doesn't work. Otherwise I am very satisfied with everything. Edit: Installation was easy of course, but the quality is terrible. She didn't survive a winter. Within a few months, numerous cracks appeared in the insulation, the wires corroded, and the connector stopped working.

Pros
  • practical item
Cons
  • contact seller

Pretty easy to install but poor installation.

Not bad to install. One tip is to remove the orange washer from the side of the OEM fork or the Curt fork will not snap into place. I didn't include this step in the instructions. This problem did not exist with the blue connector. Yes, double-sided tape sucks! I cleaned and sanded the area above the spare tire to attach the module with double sided tape. I bet he didn't leave the street. I intentionally tied the zip cords to support the module if it falls. Glad I did. Perhaps others had a…

Pros
  • Ideal for a small home
Cons
  • There are other interesting options.

Fool me once shame on you.

I bought one of these on 09/12/2014. Worked well for 14 months. Then something went wrong and my trailer's right brake light was on all the time, even when the car was completely off. I thought, "OK, it just went wrong." Since it was a really simple plug-n-play install, I ordered a 10-1-16 replacement. Until today, 04/15/17, everything worked. I hadn't hooked up a trailer, but it had a short circuit and blown the fuses for the navigation lights, turn signals, hazard warning lights and brake…

Pros
  • Easy to install
Cons
  • Only available in white

Easy to install, everything included.

It was easy to install and worked great. The instructions were easy and it only took about 20 minutes to install. There are two connectors that plug directly into the factory ports. Then all you have to do is install the module and tie the wires in place. After the initial installation, all trailer lights worked perfectly. I've seen complaints that the double-sided tape doesn't securely hold the module in place. I've driven about 4000 miles, towing 600 trailers, and the module is still securely

Pros
  • One year trial
Cons
  • Good but not great
