I attached a help article that covers the entire process of installing a brake controller in a 2007 Chevy Silverado with an integrated brake controller. You really can't get a more reliable brake controller than the P3 you referenced part # 90195. This will save you trips to the dealer and will give you some peace of mind knowing that the controller is going to work well.
Basically you will wire the P3 part # 90195 to the wire bundle that is under the dash near the brake pedal. I also attached a picture that shows where this is.
There are some connections that will need to be made at the rear of the vehicle and under the hood as well.
