We have just what you are looking for.

To install the Prodigy P2, part # 90885 I recommend using part # ETBC7. This plugs into the 4-way on your truck and with additional wiring you will have a 4-way and a 7-way connector at the back of your Tacoma. I have attached a drawing that shows how the wiring is run when installing a brake controller and using an ETBC7 kit.

When working with electrical connectors I recommend using dielectric grease like part # 11755. This keeps dirt and moisture out of the electrical connections and helps prevent corrosion.
