Umbra Rimorchi tow with tow bar prep - assistance required please

[Robbogez]

I have fitted a Umbra Rimorchi tow bar into my T6 ( a T32 4Motion, if that makes any difference). The T6 has tow bar prep, I ordered the 13pin wiring kit with the tow bar. I was expecting to just plug "a plug" into the T6 wiring in the rear left of the van. I have read a lot and understand hardly anything. Auto electrics just confuse me immensly. My questions are: Is there a different harness I can buy that will just plug in? Westfallia etc? If not what colour wire goes to what pin, how and what tools do I need? Again I have read and read again over a couple of months and its not sinking in, apologise if I have come across as a bit daft (we all have our moments) but I just need a ladybird book version of what to do .... please

The "towbar prep" includes the ECU and wiring to the back corner (passenger side) of van. You should be able to find two connectors in there that match the connectors in your towbar wiring kit.
The wiring kit does just connect into the towbar prep wiring, but with the kit I got it required a couple of the wires to be moved from one connector to another.

Thank you for your response buddy, I think I need a different wiring loom, the one I have that came with the tow bar ends in bare wires and no plug but there is a plug at the van end. I guess that changes my question to which wiring loom do I need for a tow bar prepped van.
