Parts Needed to Install 7-Way and Brake Controller in 2013 Honda Ridgeline
Question:
I have a 2013 Honda Ridgeline Sport that has a Class III hitch, but no sign of ever having a trailer harness. I would like to have a 7 way plug with a brake controller, and I am curious if this is what I need, or is there a combination of items that I need to get there......

We have just what you need. First thing you'll want is a 7-way installed on your 2013 Honda Ridgeline which we have the Tekonsha kit part # 118253 which is a confirmed fit and come with everything you'd need.
For a brake controller I would recommend the Prodigy P3 Brake Controller part # 90195. 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. This will be the last brake controller you buy. It can easily be transferred to future vehicles as well. All you'll need to install this is the correct install harness part # 3070-P and you'll be set.
