You can add a 7-way trailer connector and complete the brake controller wiring by using the Tekonsha OEM 7-way harness, part # TK22113.
The harness plugs inline at the connection point between the taillight assemblies and the taillight wiring harnesses on the driver and passenger side. The body harness would be routed under the passenger side of the vehicle to the battery area where the black and red wires connect to the positive battery terminal. The blue wire in the harness connects to a green wire located in the wiring harness located above the passenger side wheel well as shown in the provided photo.
The # TK22113 includes a brake controller wiring harness that plugs into the factory connector under the dash. The connector is located left of the steering column near the top of the e-brake pedal. For a brake controller, I really like the Redarc Tow-Pro Liberty, part # RED24FR. The Tow Pro Liberty is a remote-style controller, with the control box mounting out of sight under the dash and the control knob being installed within easy reach of the driver. A mounting bezel like # 331-TPSI-001 can be used to dress up the appearance. You'll also need a # 331-TPH-017 adapter so the Liberty brake controller will work with the brake control harness included with the # TK22113 kit.
