Default Trailer Wiring? Help ASAP!

I have a 2004 2-Door LS. I just bought a Reese hitch last night, and am installing it tonight. And I need to tow a boat tomorrow.

My problem is the trailer wiring. I searched online for a t-Connector for a 2004 , but I couldn't find any. Does that mean I will have to splice the wires in?

Also, I don't thing my Owner's manual has a wiring diagram. Does anybody know the color-code of the wires? And where exactley is the harness located?

Sorry I am asking so many questons, but I am on a deadline.

Thank so much!

The light-duty trailer wiring is a six-wire harness assembly. The optional heavy-duty trailer wiring is an eight-wire harness assembly. The harnesses are stored under the vehicle, along the passenger-side frame crossmember on two-door vehicles or on the driver's side corner frame rear crossmember on four-door vehicles. The heavy-duty trailer wiring is fused in the engine compartment fuse block. Both harnesses have no connector and should be wired by a qualified electrical technician. The technician can use the following color code chart when connecting the wiring harness to your trailer.
[*]Dark Blue: Use for electric trailer brakes or auxiliary wiring (eight-wire harness only).[*]Red: Use for battery charging; it connects to the starter solenoid (eight-wire harness only).[*]Light Green: Back-up lamps.[*]Brown: Taillamps and parking lamps.[*]Yellow: Driver's side stoplamp and turn signal.[*]Dark Green: Passenger's side stoplamp and turn signal.[*]White: Ground wire.[*]Light Blue: Auxiliary stoplamp.
