I have a video attached of the Tekonsha Prodigy P2 Trailer Brake Controller # 90885 being installed. The location of the plug in area is at minute 2:10 of this video. The factory controller plug located underneath the dash, above and in front of our accelerator pedal.

The Tekonsha Plug-In Wiring Adapter for Electric Brake Controllers # 3024-P is what you need to install your electric brake controller quickly and easily. Simply plug one end of the adapter into your brake controller and then plug the other end into the built-in harness beneath your vehicle's dash.
