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 Hyundai Veloster (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.

Open the rear hatch and remove both taillight assemblies by removing two Phillips screws holding them in place. Carefully pull out each taillight assembly, taking care not to damage the alignment tabs.
Locate the vehicle's taillight wiring harness connector on the driver side. Separate the connector carefully without damaging the locking tabs. Insert the T-Connector end with the yellow wire between the separated connectors. Ensure the connectors are fully inserted with locking tabs in place. Repeat this process on the passenger side using the T-Connector end with the green wire.
Drilling is required only if a suitable grounding point is not available. If an existing screw with nut is not found on the vehicle frame near the connector, you must drill a 3/32" hole to secure the white ground wire using the ring terminal and screw provided.

Route the 4-flat and the T-Connector end with the green wire down under the vehicle through the opening under the driver side taillight. Route the green wire across to the passenger side along the backside of the bumper and up through the opening under the passenger side taillight. Route the 4-flat wire to the center of the vehicle and secure it in a convenient out-of-the-way location. Secure any loose wires with the cable ties provided.
Adhere the black converter box behind the removed taillight housing of the vehicle using the double-sided tape provided in the kit.
Locate a suitable grounding point near the connector, such as an existing screw with nut in the vehicle's frame. If one is not available, drill a 3/32" hole and secure the white ground wire using the ring terminal and screw provided in the kit.
