Hello,

I have a 2006 Xterra S model. I'm looking to put in a trailer hitch and am wondering where to get a wiring harness and how to install it. There is a connection for the trailer wiring under the left rear end. I have a newer trailer with a 4 peg connector. What harness do i need to get? Also, where do i mount the end of the harness to the truck so i can just plug in the trailer to it?

Please help.

Thanks

Ok, first off, look at www.4x4parts.com. They have the same Valley hitch that comes as OEM for only $120. Then go to any Nissan dealer and pickup the OEM harness (http://www.yournissanparts.com/catalog.aspx?storename=nissanofturnersville&DeptID=191675&ItemID=9383214&detail=1). Then buy the 7 to 4 pin adapter to fit your trailer (http://www.courtesyparts.com/Merchant2/merchant.mvc?Screen=PROD&Product_Code=37355). And to mount it, use the Black Panther method (http://www.blackpantherskidplates.com/blackpanther_armor_054.htm)
