x2eme - I installed everything from the trailer hitch kit per your marvellous directions. However, I can't find, either by inspection or feel, the vehicle harness plug to connect the trailer wiring to. So do I need to remove the plastic bucket (which you didn't have to)?

davidr - I do have the TIS...could you please give me the document number so I find the bucket removal instructions you have summarized, or help direct me to the appropriate set of instructions? I looked around in TIS briefly today, but couldn't find these.
