In bed 5th wheel goose neck connector

OK have been searching and searching trying to find a "T" connector for the rear that I can run a 7 pin in the bed of the truck I had no luck till last night doing a bunch of searching and now finding that there are a few companies out there that do actually make them.

Basically they plug into the back of the 7 pin on the bumper and also plugs into the stock harness there it then has around a 7' pigtail to run over to basically where you want it. This is if you have the tow package.

Now I searched on here and no one had used one and no one could even say if there was such a thing only 4 blade flat connectors that plug in.

I have fouind out also that Valley Industries bought out Husky and they both have the harness, Valley's number for it is 30137 and Husky's number is 30325Reese also makes one and their number is 20111.

Also another one I found but dont have the part number is Pollak however theirs is more of a Ford/Chevy plug but they do offer an addition connector to convert to the Dodge BUT then you have to get Pollak 7 pin plug-in's as well I dont have a part number cause I didnt really care for them cause well adding up everything additional you need comes out to being almost twice the price as the other 3. You have the harness with 3 ends on it, one end has 2 (stock Ford/Chevy plug then the Pollak plug) The other end has one for the Pollak plug. That harness is around $59.99 for itself then you need the $27 adapter to go from the one end and into the Dodge harness you then need two Pollak 7 pin connectors (one for the bumper on the truck and one for the bed) I was quoted locally around $130 for everything im sure you could get it a bit cheaper but even still the other ones are around $60 for the "right" one that fits our trucks.

Hope this info helps out someone!
