The Tekonsha Voyager Proportional Trailer Brake Controller # 39510 will install in a 2002 GMC Sierra (if it is equipped with a factory 7-way) using quick-connect wiring adapter # 3025-P, which plugs in under the dash as shown in the linked video at the 4:54 mark.
A brake controller that offers automatic leveling, such as the Prodigy P3 # 90195, does not require that the mounting position be exactly straight in order for it to operate properly. The Voyager does require that it is mounted level and be pointed in the direction of travel. It has a manual knob for leveling. The auto-level feature can make it easier to install the controller since you have more flexibility.
The linked article on brake controllers will give you more information about the types available.
