Nice. Ya I was hesitant to buy this because of the price tag. Heck, even half of that seems like a lot of money for trailer wiring. And then there’s the $800 carbon spoiler in the tesla store I’d love to have, but damn that’s a whole lot of money!
In the end I’m happy I got this adapter, wish it cost a lot less, but after taking apart the rear of my brand new car to install the hitch I really didn’t have much explorer-bandwidth left for jacking into the wiring so I’m glad this plugnplay option exists.

Very encouraging. We are in BC. I’m surprised E-trailer doesn’t sell these.

One more question. I’m going to poke around in the hitch area tomorrow. Any suggestions on removing the hitch cover?

The hitch cover? That’s as easy as it gets! You mean the bumper cover/fascia?

Sorry if I misunderstood you. The hitch cover meaning the cover plate that conceals the hitch when in conceal mode? It simply unclips and can be removed. Iirc it has two fasteners that turn 90* to release, then it pulls out and off.
Now I’m embarrassed. I actually mean the hitch cover. I haven’t looked at it yet. Sounds like it’s easy.

No worries, we all have our moments. Once you look at it it will be crystal clear.Now I’m embarrassed. I actually mean the hitch cover. I haven’t looked at it yet. Sounds like it’s easy.
If you can take apart the bumper and all that apart, tapping into the wiring (especially without cutting any wires and super clear instructions) is super easy. I have the Stealth Hitch installed and couldnt be happier. Home Depot runs and garbage runs (yard debris, and all) is super easy now with a small trailer.

That’s my homemade trailer used mainly to shuttle my mower around town during mowing season. It’s a little “little long in the tooth” but perfect as mower shuttle and misc odd jobs I use it for. The bike rack is what’s attached to my hitch, I just backed the T up to the trailer to snap a pic of the lights.
Nice. I was about to ask how you have the trailer and the bike rack hooked up at the same time.
Here is what I use mine for. I gotta say, properly loaded you don't feel it back there at all, even with 2k lbs.

Unfortunately it doesn’t seem available thru anyone anymore. If someone sees this come available please let me know.
thanks in advance.
It is still there. merchandise does not stay permanently on e-bay links. They have an expiry. Merchants have to repost items for sale periodically. Copy paste the title and search for it again in main ebay search bar. The pricy $400 bugger will not sell out.
