05 STI trailer wiring

Dwagner1006 · 12-12-2009, 07:18 PM

I am thinking of ordering this hitch

I need to tow around my quad

Has anyone used this trailer light harness, will it work? Where do you hook it up?

I have that hitch. Installed in September and used 1 time to pull my tire trailer. Will be removing and selling as I bought a car trailer. Any interest? I still have to remove it from the garage queen. Great hitch, easy install. I did not use the trailer harness, but have read that it works.

If we can work out a decent price, that would be great. Can you email me some pics?

I have the hks carbon ti exhaust so I have some concerns about it fitting the hitch. I heard I might need to use some cartboy hangers.

How did you wire up then?

Anyone used these things?

I'll try and upload pics to email to you. I had an old 4 wire harness from an old car and used it. Not exactly correct for this car as the turn signals do not work, but it was last minute to allow me to attend a lapping session. The car tail lamps were visible.
This is what I pulled:

That is so sick. I have a tiny trailer that I want to tow around.

Would you include the hitch with the ball/receiver and all hardware?

Dwagner1006 · 12-14-2009, 06:24 AM

I priced out a new hitch. I can have a new one here in 3 days for $145. How soon can you ship out yours?

***Got2Boostit2*** · 12-14-2009, 08:26 AM

I can have it off tonight for shipping on Tuesday. It would be about the same amount of days.
