About CURT 51170 Spectrum Original Equipment Style
Overall Feedback:
74% positive
70% liked its reliable and durable design, though 30% experienced premature wear
I am uncertain about the product's durability and waiting to see how long it lasts.
I had two of these products. The first one was junk straight out of the box and the second one lasted for 2 months before stopping.
I broke one of the pins and had to solder it in place, indicating a potential durability issue with the product.
The lights on the dial light up randomly in different colors even when there is no trailer hooked up, making me wonder if there is an internal short.
90% found it easy to install and set up, though 10% encountered difficulties
I installed the factory towing kit in my 2nd generation Toyota Tacoma in mid 2019 and found the process straightforward.
I was able to install the small wires despite having poor vision and fat fingers, indicating that the installation process was easy for me.
I was able to install the dial on the dash and the sensor box beneath the steering column on a steel bracket not attached to anything that moves, indicating that the installation process was easy for me.
It took me about 90 minutes to install the trailer-brake-controls. I did it wrong at first, but then fixed it and finished it up.
