The complete kit including wiring harness, 7 pin plug & chrome ball was $300 from Bob Parkes Mufflers in Townsville.Took about 2 hrs to fit, very well made, had no issues with hole alignment.

That plug that comes with it does it plug into the wiring loom or is it wired in.Mine which was wired in got ballsed up by the idiot who did it and I had to redo it. I noticed you can obviously get a plug in one from fraud.

The wiring was a plug in kit with no cutting or soldering.Only thing I had to do was connect the trailer plug to the cable, google "trailer plug wiring" for sites with wiring diagrams.

I just rang boronia towbars and they seem to think that the part number you supplied was for Ba-bf, but the fg needs the cutting. Just wanted to be sure...
