How did you end up dealing with the wiring, Lex? I'm in the same boat as you were -- just installed a hitch on my Edge, and now fighting with getting wiring to it.
As you probably saw during your install, there is a factory harness under the bumper. Did you ever figure out a way to tap into it, or did you just end up buying the kit with the "T-Connector" for around $40?
Thanks,
Pete
I live in CA.... so for me, twas more expensive which is naturally my point/concern on that front. as for quality, you could be right about similar quality. I do not know as that brand is not really named while you can do a lot of research on Curt. Do I think quality differences exist in products (paint finish, wear, welds, materials, fitment precision).. yes sure - seen it many times in products. will it matter in this case? I do not know but I can tell you this, in this case, the Curt hitch uses 3 attachment bolt points versus the other which shows just 2. good example right there of a product difference with the Curt distributing more load across the frame at 3 bolts versus 2.
I think you are reading way more in to what I said than I was implying.. but ultimately I think we both agree that in the end.. who cares really
