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 Chevy Camaro (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.

CURT part 56197 is designed for Chevrolet Camaro without LED taillights. The manual does not specify which model years or trim levels are compatible. Consult the Wiring Location Guide or contact CURT technical support at 1-877-287-8634 to confirm fitment for your specific Camaro.
No. The CURT 56197 is specifically designed for Chevrolet Camaro without LED taillights. If your Camaro has LED taillights, this product is not compatible.
Yes. Step 2 of the installation requires you to locate the vehicle's battery and disconnect the negative battery terminal before proceeding with any wiring work.
You must remove the trunk floor coverings, the plastic covers on top of the rear taillights (three plastic fasteners on each side), and the rear scuff panel (three plastic wing nuts on each side). You will also need to pull back the felt trunk liner to access the rubber grommet leading to the back of the taillights.
Remove the rubber grommet that the taillight wire harness passes through. Make a cut in the grommet from the center outwards that is large enough to pass the T-Connector's housings through. After routing the T-Connector, re-seat the rubber grommet.
Route the T-Connector end with the yellow wire to the driver's side behind the taillight. Route the T-Connector end with the green wire to the passenger's side behind the removed scuff panel.
Locate the taillight wiring harness connectors. Separate the connectors carefully, taking care not to damage the alignment tabs. Insert the T-Connector end (yellow for driver's side, green for passenger's side) between the separated housings. Ensure the housings are fully inserted with locking tabs in place.
The kit includes cable ties to secure wires to the existing wiring harness, a ring terminal, and a screw for the ground wire. The screw is used to secure the white ground wire at a suitable grounding point near the connector.
Locate a suitable grounding point near the connector, such as an existing screw with nut in the vehicle's frame. If no suitable point exists, drill a 3/32" pilot hole. Clean the ground area of rust and dirt. Secure the white ground wire using the ring terminal and screw provided.
Drill a 3/32" pilot hole if a suitable existing grounding point is not available. Before drilling, verify that miscellaneous items hidden behind or under any surface will not be damaged.
