DRAW-TITE Class 1 custom trailer hitches come complete with all the mounting hardware needed for installation and are backed by a nationwide lifetime limited warranty. So, whether you are headed out to the campground and need a place for the cooler, taking the bikes to hit the trails in the park, or you are tackling a DIY project (maybe some landscaping or a home repair), choose DRAW-TITE and travel with confidence knowing your setup is connected with the security only DRAW-TITE can provide. DRAW-TITE: North America?s Favorite Hitch.
Draw-Tite has designed custom-fit trailer hitches since 1946 and is one of North America's most widely fitted hitch brands. Receiver hitches use solid all-welded construction and low-profile designs that follow modern vehicle contours, install with minimal bumper cutting or drilling, meet or exceed V5 CSA and SAE J684 standards, and carry a limited lifetime warranty.
Draw-Tite has been leading custom-fit trailer hitch design and engineering since its founding in 1946, and it remains one of the most widely fitted hitch brands in North America. The company's stated approach is straightforward: every hitch is tested rigorously so that it performs well beyond published industry standards, a philosophy it markets as Tested Tough. It sits within the Horizon Global towing group alongside Reese, Fulton, Bulldog, Tekonsha, Bargman and Wesbar.
Custom fit is the defining characteristic. Rather than adapting a universal design, Draw-Tite engineers a trailer hitch for a specific make, model and model year, so it bolts to existing frame locations with minimal bumper cutting or drilling. Low-profile designs follow the rear contours and aerodynamic styling of modern vehicles, which matters more than it once did now that rear fascias are shaped and sensor-equipped. Construction is solid all-welded steel for maximum strength, and every hitch meets or exceeds V5 CSA and SAE J684 standards and is backed by a nationwide limited lifetime warranty.
The range spans receiver sizes and classes to suit different loads, from 1-1/4 inch receivers for bike racks, cargo carriers and light trailers up through 2 inch receivers for heavier towing. Front mount hitches add a receiver at the front of the vehicle for winch mounts, snow plows, spare carriers and precise trailer positioning.
The Hidden Hitch series takes concealment further by mounting behind the vehicle's rear fascia, so the vehicle keeps its factory appearance until a removable receiver is fitted. Each is custom designed per make and model for a no-drill installation that does not compromise ground clearance, rated for up to 3,500 pounds gross trailer weight and 350 pounds tongue weight. Matching plug-and-play wiring completes the towing system.

The T-Connector is a trailer wiring adapter for the Scion xB that allows you to connect a trailer's lighting system to your vehicle's electrical system. It intercepts the vehicle's taillight wiring and provides a 4-flat connector for the trailer. The system includes a converter box, wiring harness with yellow and green ends, grounding wire, fuse holder with 10 amp fuse, and cable ties for routing and securing the installation.
Yes, the T-Connector is designed for the Scion xB. The manual does not specify model year ranges, so contact the manufacturer or your retailer to confirm compatibility with your specific vehicle year.
You will need: a drill with 3/32" drill bit, Phillips head screwdriver, test probe, trim panel puller, wire crimpers, and wire cutters. These tools are required to remove interior panels, disconnect and reconnect wiring, drill the ground hole, and crimp wire connections.
The T-Connector includes: two connector ends (one with yellow wire, one with green wire), a black converter box, white ground wire with eyelet and screw, black 12 gauge wire, red wire, yellow butt connectors, yellow fuse holder with 10 amp fuse, cable ties, and double-sided tape for mounting the converter box.
Yes. You must disconnect the vehicle's negative (-) battery cable before connecting the fuse holder to the positive battery terminal (step 8). After all connections are complete, you reconnect the negative battery cable and install the 10 amp fuse (step 9).
You must temporarily remove the rear hatch, rear threshold plate, storage covers, and floor covering. You also need to partially remove the rear interior trim panels on both the driver and passenger sides to access the taillight wiring harness. Set aside all removed items carefully to avoid damage, and reinstall them after the T-Connector installation is complete.
Locate the vehicle's taillight wiring harness on both driver and passenger sides (step 3). On the driver's side, insert the T-Connector end with the yellow wire between the vehicle wiring connectors and lock it into place, ensuring the locking tabs are fully engaged (step 4). Route the T-Connector end with the green wire to the passenger side behind the panels and along the threshold, then repeat the connection process (step 5). Ensure all connector surfaces are clean and free of dirt before connecting.
Yes. You must drill a single 3/32" hole to secure the white ground wire. Locate a suitable grounding point near the connector on the vehicle's frame or cross member—do not drill into the vehicle floor or bed. Clean dirt and rustproofing from the area, drill the hole, and secure the white wire using the eyelet and screw provided. Always verify what is behind any surface before drilling to avoid damage to the vehicle or personal injury.
From inside the vehicle, connect the black 12 gauge wire and red wire from the T-Connector black box using the supplied yellow butt connector (step 7). You have two routing options: either route the black wire through a grommet and along the exterior frame, or follow the existing wiring along the thresholds into the engine compartment up to the battery. Choose the route that avoids areas that may pinch or break the wire. If routing through a grommet and along the exterior, carefully avoid hot pipes, heat shields, the fuel tank, and other points that may pinch or break the wire.
Disconnect the vehicle's negative (-) battery cable first (step 8). If not already removed, remove the fuse from the yellow fuse holder. Cut the fuse holder wire, attach the ring terminal, and secure it to the vehicle's positive (+) battery terminal. Connect the other end of the fuse holder to the black 12 gauge wire using the supplied yellow butt connector. After all connections are complete, reconnect the negative battery cable and install the 10 amp fuse into the fuse holder (step 9). Read and follow all warnings and cautions printed on the vehicle's battery.
Use a 10 amp fuse in the yellow fuse holder provided with the T-Connector. This fuse protects the circuit and must be installed after all other connections are complete and the negative battery cable is reconnected.
Mount the black converter box on the driver's side of the vehicle on a flat surface in an out-of-the-way place using the double-sided tape provided. Secure the remainder of the T-Connector harness with the cable ties provided to prevent damage, rattling, and to avoid areas that would cut or pinch the wire.
Do not exceed the lower of your towing manufacturer's rating or these limits: maximum stop/turn light is 1 per side (2.1 amps) and maximum tail lights (5.6 amps). Overloading the circuit can cause fires. Consult your vehicle's owner's manual and instruction sheet for additional information on your specific towing capacity.
All connections must be complete for the T-Connector to function properly. Test and verify the installation with a test light or by connecting a trailer once installed. For the initial test, reset the vehicle's electrical system by temporarily removing the key from the ignition. This ensures all connections are working correctly before towing.
Store the 4-flat connector in the rear cargo area when not in use.
Yes, the T-Connector (118468-037) is designed for the Scion xB. Confirm your specific model year with the manufacturer.
