Trailer light adapter

Hi The wifes car has a towbar with 13 pin light socket, the trailer i use has 7 pin plug. I got adapter in motor factors but it doesn't fit on the car, it has this 'maypole' shape on the outside- it fits the trailer plug ok. I went back to them, and tried 2 other places but the are the same ? Anyone know if there is…

Anyone know if there is alternative, rather than changing the plug - the trailer is not mine. Thanks marzic

The 13 pin twists in to engage, you line it up push in and twist clockwise if I remember properly.
