    Gen 5 Trailer Wiring

    Does anyone know of a trailer wiring kit for the Gen 5 Prius? I have a small trailer for hauling bigger items when needed for my rentals.

    I wasn’t using my truck so I sold it and put a hitch on the Prius.

    I'm working on one now.

    Some photos. I'm planning on installing it either 1/20 or 1/30 depending on how time allows.

    Photos linked etc are being a bitch so I've given up doing a formal write up on this forum. Nothing will hotlink and I don't publicly post photos to hosting sites.

    I don't have a write up completed yet but it is in process once I can confirm fitment and that the correct wiring is what I'm looking at.

    I use this on my 2012 v. The Gen 5 would be similar. The space is very limited. You have to use the 1/4 inch female clamp on connector and the 1/4 males on the adapter's input wiring. The supplied connectors are too big.

    That's cool!

    I did the writeup for it in a .pdf but it fails uploading or attaching. Guess that's PriusChat's loss.
