my saturn didn't have a tow package on it either, my son said he didn't hook lights up we just put reflectors on the carrier we put our luggage on. he said you would just have to buy what they call a pigtail, at any parts store and run your tail lights to it, in order to have lights on whatever you pull.

They make a kit that plugs into your tail lights that is fairly easy to install. You can get it on amazon or at a local auto parts store like oreilly or auto zone. The Local store may give you some installation tips or YouTube it for the best ideas

I had mine installed at the (Dodge) dealership along with a factory trailer towing wiring harness. Not aware of what else they may have needed to install it. It works great. I believe this type of item should be done professionally.

I do it myself. Just open the roof of the car and add it. Then pass all cables by one side and plug it. Nevertheless I have knowledge of installation... Good luck

I would suggest you take a picture of the top assy and compare it to pictures on the web or send it to nordic trac ,, My guess is your missing some parts ,, good luck

It is up to you you could do it either way. The wires were already there for me to replace mine. If you are replacing a tach you will not need one, but if you are installing a tach that was never there I would say you might have to have some type of wiring harness.

If yours come with a towing package it will have the module for the towing lights. This means it has a transmission oil cooler under the right front fender and the tow module already installed in the rear. Therefore all you need is the connector(harness) for it. This can be purchased through the dealer.

I don't know about the fitment of the unit in this particular car, but I do know you will have to get a wiring harness. I looked at a photo of the Chevy traverse dash and don't think that it will without custom fittings. I installed mine in a 2010 Nissan terra and it fit ok, but God antenna hits part of the frame where it plugs to the back of the unit. But not so bad to cause poor fitting. Unit is over a a great unit for for being under 200$.

If you got the kit without the display you will need the wire harness..if it has the display or the kit on the right no everything is in the box just need the antenna

Hello Michael, there should be all needed Parts and wires included. You should try to Mail Metra-Service and tell your Problem, they´ve got a really good support... Without that special wire it´s not going to work.

In the 2008 Enclave it's in the rear driver side wheel well. By the jack. The cables are clipped to the outside wall. Once I figured out which wires were which it took 10 minutes start to finish.

I didnt purchase an accompanying box bcs I didn't need one. But you will need a terminal/junction box to mount this. Make sure you have at least 6 inches of slack with your copper when wiring up the box, whether this is an end or continuing point along your circuit. Any other questions, feel free to post.

No module needed... I just wired mine directly in-line with the tour-pak lights, making sure to connect the correct wire for the brake lights. Works fine.

Sorry, I don't know what your tow set up includes, so I really can't answer.

Not included in the kit. Not sure if something aftermarket could be made to work

I still have the part because it did not fit my 2013 traverse because I need another part. The parts I need cost $325.00 each so I have not purchased them. Unfortunately, I could not tell you if they would fit your vehicle.

Be sure that the package you order comes with the cable for the particular vehicle. It is then a 'simple' (took me about 2 hrs fiddling in a space into which I couldn't get my hands) matter of plugging it in to the vehicles harness.
