Default Wiring Harness For Towing Location

Hello everybody,

2013 GS450h owner here - I was wondering if any other GS (or probably LS) owners could inform me the location to hook up a wiring harness for a tow trailer if one exists.

For the record I am aware that GS450h does not recommend towing, but I'm hoping they still put a still put a socket for a harness in there!

Thank you kindly,

-Rudy

You need to tap the taillights to wire it yourself.

I did exactly what pesados says, you just wire it to the brake, driving and reverse lights and then there is a rubber grommet in the boot you can pass the wires through to a trailer connector

After some more searching I found this kit to tap into the lighting system:

T-One Trailer Connector

Installation seems pretty straightforward! Hopefully all goes according to plan, the one thing I miss about my CR-V was the trailer hitch. And the folding rear seats
