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 Toyota Prius (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.

Remove all trunk floor covers and trays, the rear scuff panel (by pulling out on the bottom and up on the top), and the battery cover on the passenger side. You will also need to pull back the felt trunk liner on the passenger's side to access the vehicle's taillight wiring harness connectors.
Locate the vehicle's taillight wiring harness connectors on the passenger's side behind the felt trunk liner. Separate the connectors carefully without damaging the locking tabs. Insert the T-Connector end with the green wire between the separated connectors. Ensure the connectors are fully inserted with locking tabs in place. Repeat this process on the driver side using the T-Connector end with the yellow wire.
Drilling may be required for the ground wire. 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" hole and secure the eyelet of the white ground wire using the screw provided. Before drilling, verify that miscellaneous items hidden behind or under any surface will not be damaged.
Drill a 3/32" hole to secure the eyelet of the white ground wire. Use the screw provided to attach the eyelet to the vehicle's frame.
The T-Connector has three wires: green, yellow, and white. The green wire end connects to the passenger side taillight harness, the yellow wire end connects to the driver side taillight harness, and the white wire is the ground wire that connects to the vehicle's frame.
The fuse rating is 10 amps. Install the 10 amp fuse provided in the fuse holder and close the fuse holder's cap.
Route the black power wire to the battery's positive terminal. Remove the battery's cover and remove the nut securing the red battery cable. Place the fuse holder's ring terminal over the stud and replace the nut. Install the 10 amp fuse provided in the fuse holder and close the fuse holder's cap.
Use the provided cable ties to secure any loose wires. Route the T-Connector end with the yellow wire to the driver side behind the removed scuff panel.
Locate a flat spot on the vehicle's frame and adhere the black converter box using the double-sided tape provided.
When not in use, roll up the 4-flat connector and store it in an out-of-the-way location. Route the 4-flat out from under the felt trunk liner to the center of the vehicle only when in use.
The Curt 56147 includes a T-Connector harness with green, yellow, and white wires; a black converter box; double-sided tape for mounting the converter box; a screw for securing the ground wire eyelet; a 10 amp fuse; a fuse holder with ring terminal; and cable ties for securing loose wires.
Before drilling, verify that miscellaneous items hidden behind or under any surface will not be damaged. This precaution prevents damage to hidden components and personal injury.
The Curt 56147 is designed for the Toyota Prius. Contact Curt technical support at 1-877-287-8634 to confirm compatibility with your specific model year.
Drilling may be required for the ground wire if no suitable existing screw with nut is available on the vehicle's frame. If drilling is needed, drill a 3/32" hole.

The manual does not specify required tools. Basic tools such as a drill (if a ground hole is needed), screwdrivers, and pliers may be necessary. Contact Curt technical support at 1-877-287-8634 for a complete tool list.
