How-To: Cleanly install a Non-Factory CX-5 Trailer Harness

[Skorpio]

I am still waiting for the remaining pieces of howlin4you's clean connector mount to arrive. This might a post Labor Day weekend project.

Did you order them from Amazon? I got mine within 3 days.

Looks nice! Your circuit tester/cover has green lights? Mine are red. Did you drill holes below the bumper to mount the harness? And does your trailer sit level with your hitch ball that high?

Kedis,
Looks good, glad it worked out for you!

Just order the same hitch and wiring for our 2015 CX-5 Touring I got yesterday here in Minnesota. Where did you pickup the rear scuff plates? AND thanks to all who provided these installations and pictures. I am new to this SUV and site. Had been using a 1997 Ford Explore to pull my fishing boat, but this vehicle seems to be a much better choice.
