All Hardware and Installation Instructions Included!
However you define adventure -- whether it's climbing onto the back of a mountain bike, hunting from the top of a tree stand or camping with the family a long way from nowhere -- CURT class 1 hitches provide a light-duty towing receiver to help you Bring It. Each is made to fit a specific vehicle, providing easier installation, a better fit and optimal towing capacity. Custom class 1 trailer hitches are available for a variety of smaller vehicle types, including the compact car, crossover, minivan and small SUV. This particular class 1 hitch is designed to be a custom hitch for certain years of the Mitsubishi Lancer (to verify vehicle compatibility, see the CURT application guide at curtmfg.com). Tested in accordance with SAE J684, it offers a weight carrying capacity of 2,000 lbs. GTW and 200 lbs. TW. It is equipped with 1-1/4" receiver tube opening to accept a ball mount shank or other hitch mount. This class 1 hitch also comes with all necessary mounting hardware. With its lightweight design and smaller receiver tube size, a class 1 hitch is especially useful for adding cargo space with a hitch-mounted bike rack or cargo carrier. They can also typically be used to tow small trailers such as a utility trailer, kayak trailer or teardrop camper (never exceed the lowest weight capacity of any towing component; i.e. the vehicle, hitch, trailer, etc). Though CURT class 1 trailer hitches are only intended for light-duty towing, we apply the same principles of quality as we do to the rest of our rear mount hitches. Each class 1 hitch is made with hands-on engineering, high-strength steel and precise welding. We use a co-cured finish of liquid A-coat, inside and out, and durable black powder coat to provide a lasting defense against rust, chips and UV rays.
If your vehicle is not equipped with wiring for towing a trailer, CURT custom wiring is the ideal solution. A custom wiring harness -- also called a T-connector -- is a simple, plug-and-play electrical device that plugs into your automotive electric system and provides a standard, universal trailer wiring connection. This is done using two or more vehicle-specific, OEM-compatible connectors to plug into the taillight assembly, eliminating the need for cutting, splicing and soldering during installation. Custom wiring harnesses are made vehicle-specific, and while they are not available for all vehicles, they do offer one of the fastest, easiest and most secure ways to wire a vehicle for towing. This particular plug-in harness provides a 4-way flat connector socket and is designed to be a custom wiring harness to fit certain years of the Mitsubishi RVR, Outlander Sport and Lancer (to verify your vehicle compatibility, see application info). It comes with all necessary wiring components to establish a reliable trailer wiring connection, as well as a dust cover to keep the connector clean when not in use. You have a picture in mind of your next destination -- maybe it's the boat landing at your favorite fishing spot, maybe it's a campsite that overlooks one of nature's masterpieces, or maybe it's the next big jobsite. However, turning that picture into a reality takes more than just daydreaming. It takes a solid connection and the right amount of power. CURT custom wiring is made with some of the most sophisticated technology in the industry and is designed to install with ease, giving you a long-lasting electrical connection for your towing hitch setup.

Yes, the Curt 56127 is compatible with Mitsubishi Lancer sedans and Mitsubishi Lancer hatchbacks. It is also compatible with Mitsubishi Outlander Sport models with LED taillights only, and Mitsubishi RVR (Canada only). Confirm your vehicle model and taillight type before purchasing.
No. The Curt 56127 is compatible with Mitsubishi Outlander Sport models with LED taillights only. It is not rated for non-LED taillight configurations.
The battery connection must be fuse-protected at 10-amp maximum. Signal circuits are rated at 3.0 amps per side, and tail/running circuits are rated at 6.0 amps total. Do not exceed the product rating or your tow vehicle's lamp load rating, whichever is lower. Exceeding the product rating can cause loss of warranty, overheating, and potential fire.
You will need a Phillips screwdriver, a flat blade screwdriver, and a panel trim removal tool. A 3/32" drill bit is also required to create a pilot hole for the ground wire screw (unless a suitable existing screw with nut is available in the vehicle frame).
The yellow wire end connects on the driver side. Insert it between the separated taillight connectors behind the driver side access panel, ensuring the connectors are fully inserted with locking tabs in place. Then reinstall the grommet and taillight.
The green wire end connects on the passenger side. Route it behind the removed scuff panel and repeat the connection steps on the passenger side, inserting it between the separated taillight connectors and ensuring the connectors are fully inserted with locking tabs in place.
Locate a suitable grounding point near the connector, such as an existing screw with nut in the vehicle frame. If no suitable point exists, drill a 3/32" pilot hole. The area must be free of rust, dirt, and paint. Secure the white ground wire using the ring terminal and the provided screw.
Drilling may be required. You must locate a suitable grounding point near the connector, such as an existing screw with nut in the vehicle frame. If no suitable point exists, you will need to drill a 3/32" pilot hole for the provided ground screw. Before drilling, check for miscellaneous items hidden behind or under any surface to avoid damage and personal injury.
Locate a flat spot inside the vehicle near the taillight and adhere the black converter box using the provided double-sided tape.
When in use, route the 4-flat to the center of the vehicle and out of the trunk. When not in use, roll it up and store in a convenient, out-of-the-way location inside the trunk. Secure any loose wires with the provided cable ties.
All steps must be followed to ensure the wiring harness functions properly. Once installed, test for proper function by using a test light or connecting a properly wired trailer. This confirms that all connections are secure and the harness is operating correctly.
The Curt 56127 includes the custom wiring harness with yellow and green wire ends, a white ground wire with ring terminal, a black converter box, a provided ground screw, double-sided tape for mounting the converter box, cable ties for securing loose wires, and a 4-flat dust cover. The manual also references an included CME-PCL-INS sheet for battery routing details.
Open the vehicle tailgate and remove the two Phillips screws securing each taillight assembly. Locate and remove the grommet behind each taillight where the vehicle taillight wiring passes through from inside the cabin to the taillight.
Inside the grommet hole, locate the vehicle taillight wiring harness connectors. They will be similar to those on the custom wiring harness. Separate the connectors from the taillight housing, taking care not to damage the locking tabs.
Remove the cargo area floor covering and the spare tire cover. Remove the two fasteners securing the rear scuff panel and pull it out at the bottom and then up, taking care not to damage the alignment tabs on the back. Remove the screws holding the rear trim panels in place and partially remove the driver and passenger side rear trim panels by pulling outward.
Yes, the Curt 56127 is compatible with Mitsubishi Lancer sedans and hatchbacks, Outlander Sport with LED taillights only, and RVR (Canada only).
