Looking for 5-pin square trailer connector

[jryan]

My '89 VR & trailer have matching 5 pin square connectors for the trailer wiring. My '06 RSV also came with a 5 pin square connector. The problem is the '06 RSV & trailer are both male plugs. So I thought I'd just buy a new set & replace the male plug on the RSV with a female plug, like the VR has, and then the trailer would work on either bike.

 

But where the heck do you find these plugs? I've looked at all the auto parts stores & on the net and can't find them anywhere. Can't find something on the internet...?...what's up with that?! I could go with a 6 pin and just not use the last pin (trailer brakes), but then I'd probably have to swap out 3 sets of plugs to get everything to be able to connect together.

 

But after searching with no luck I'm starting to think I should do just that...for some reason the 5 pin square plugs seem to be top secret or something!

 

Anyone know where I can find them?

Might look at a large U-Haul dealer if there's one near you. If they install hitches they usually have a large display of different types of plugs and towing accessories. it's worth a shot anyhow.

 

Good luck
