Trailer lights and equipment must
comply with federal, state, province,
and local regulations. Check trailer
light requirements for the areas
where you plan to tow, and use only
equipment designed for your vehicle.
Your vehicle is equipped with a
connector to install an optional trailer
lighting connector that mates with
your vehicle. You can get this
optional connector from your dealer.

We recommend that you have your
dealer install an Acura wiring
harness and converter. This harness
has been designed for your vehicle.
Towing a Trailer
If you use a non-Acura trailer
lighting harness and converter, you
can get the mating connector and
pins that mate with the connector in
your vehicle from your dealer.
Since lighting and wiring vary with
trailer type and brand, you should
also have a qualified mechanic install
a suitable connector between the
vehicle and the trailer.
