We have exactly what you need to get a 7-way and brake controller on your 2016 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited. To add 7-way wiring you have to start with a 4-way. The Tekonsha # 118416 is the best and most reliable option.
Once you install your 4-way you can upgrade to a 7-way using the Universal Installation Kit for Trailer Brake Controller # ETBC7. This kit comes with the adapter, wiring, breakers, and everything else you need.
For a brake controller I recommend the Redarc Tow-Pro Liberty # RED24FR. The main unit of the brake controller installs behind the dash so only the control knob is visible in the vehicle. This gives it an OEM look while taking up minimal space. The knob controls the braking power and also acts as the manual override. The Universal Wiring Harness # RED69FR will also be required.
I have attached some installation videos below for your reference.
