Factory Wiring Connector

Factory Wiring Connector
I have a 1992 Honda Accord LX.
I was told that my car has a FACTORY wiring connector to hook up the wiring for a trailer hitch.
I was told that it is in the trunk, but I cannot find it.
Does anyone KNOW if my car actually has this connector and EXACTLY where it is?
Thank you.

Thank you---BUT---
what is a GARNISH ?
I have never heard this term in a vehicle discussion.
Do I have to pull up any of the carpet?
This connector is used to hook up the wiring when pulling a trailer, right?
Is it a flat or round connector?
Thanks again.

A garnish is just a trim piece. Honda uses that term regularly in their parts descriptions.
The trailer lighting connector is rectangular. I will only briefly post the image.

OK--I went out to my car and removed the tail light access door (on the left side)
Behind that door, there is only the wires for the tail light--
there is no 6P wiring connector.
So where is it EXACTLY?
What do I have to remove in order to find it?
Thank you.

I previously posted this image in my last post and removed it. I will posted again for a short period.
You have to remove the garnish panel next to the taillight access door.

OK---I found it!
It was actually on top of the tail light wiring, but taped up.
It is a small blue connector and multi-pin connector.
Does this connector have another designation besides "6P" ?
Obviously I need the other "half" of this connector in order to hook up the wiring for a trailer hitch.
Where would be the best place to get the other part of the connector?

Refer to the information in the image I posted in post #4. The dealership may or may not carry the corresponding harness connector anymore, since so many years has past for a 1992 Accord. It is referred to as a trailer lighting connector; 6P is a generic reference to a connector have 6 cavity/terminals.
If the dealership doesn't have the harness connector anymore, you would just use aftermarket trailer light connector and splice the wiring based on the image in post #4.
