If memory serves, the pins are numbered inside the 'socket' that mounts on the towing bracket, the wires' colours should reassure you what the numbers are ;) .

If you've an Owners' Handbook for your car, there will be an explanation of which wires you want to tap into in the boot to supply the towbar socket.
