TPMS outlet question

I installed the Ford trailer TPMS kit in my 2018 Superduty, and used it with a bumper-pull trailer. The kit replaces the 7-pin receptacle in the bumper with a combination receptacle for both the 7-pin and the TPMS cable.

I just replaced the TT with a 5er, and want to shift the TPMS to the new RV. The truck has a 7-pin receptacle in the bed (Part of the Ultimate Trailer Tow package), but it seems the combination receptacle will not install there.

What is the best way to hook up the TPMS cable? Is there a replacement receptacle for the in-bed 7-pin plug? I could simply dangle the cord over the tailgate to the receptacle I. The bumper, but that does not seem like a very elegant solution.

Thanks for any help!

These guys make quality products. I installed mine 2 1/2 years ago and it is trouble free.

The regular trailer light cord should be long enough the plug in at the bumper ..
I towed My 5th wheel that way with a 2016 Super Duty, Worked Fine !!
