Part # for bed mounted connector surround

Would anyone have a part number for the plastic surround for the bed mounted trailer connector? See picture below of cracked plastic from trying to pull away without disconnecting.

Disregard request. I called local dealer and they ordered the "box" that the 7 pin connector mounts to for me. Cost $13.80.

You got away cheap for that trick !!! Lucky you.... but hopefully you don't have to change the plug on the cord.

Yes. I was lucky. I pulled away slowly with my window open. I heard the plastic box break and stopped immediately. Nothing else was damaged.

Of course I blamed my wife.

She interrupted me as I was unhitching and I missed disconnecting the cord. Of course i am just as much to blame.

Now If she starts to interrupt me I ask her to please wait until I'm ready to drive away.
