Expert Reply:
There is no install harness for the 2012 Chevy Silverados for brake controller installs, but the wires are already pre-wired under the dash of your truck for easy installation. Check out the install video I attached that shows a controller being installed in a 2012 Silverado just like yours that will walk you through the entire process.
For a brake controller I would recommend the Prodigy P2 Brake Controller part # 90885. This is our best selling brake controller because of how well it works and how easy it is to setup. This is a proportional brake controller that senses the amount of braking the tow vehicle is applying and applies a proportionate amount to the trailer brakes.
