2014 Limited trailer hitch

[ChicoFowler]

I just got the newest trailer hitch installed and it came with the square 4 pin plug. Other than spending $150 bucks from BRP for their adapter, I'm thinking of replacing the square 4 plug with a standard flat 4 pin. For $500 bucks for the hitch, you'd think they offer some standard adapters:banghead:

Anyone see an issues with just cutting that end off and putting on a 4 pin flat?

I could buy the one from BRP, but I hate to spend that kind of money for a connector.....

As I see it..!!

as long as all the matching wires get connected to each other should work. Does seem they would standardize the hookups. But at those prices someone is making a bundle...:banghead:

I purchased a Hopkins 47975 4PL square 24" set and a Hoplins 48025 flat 4 wire connector to fit my trailer and spliced them together and made my own...Total cost $12.00

The problem I'm having is finding a 4square mate. I see another response about a Hopkins product.
I'll have to check that.
Thanks

No , there will be no issue cutting the BRP plugs off and using a flat four connector. I know someone that had his dealer cut off the square connector and used a flat four .
For the bike part he used a Reese four way flat universal mounting bracket part# 78096 . His set up looks awesome. I will be doing the same to my 2015 RT.

here is the link http://www.reeseprod.com/content/products.aspx?lvl=3&parentid=1500&catID=1585&part=118149 the mounting bracket is zipped tied to the side of the trailer hitch :thumbup:
