The Hopkins Plug-In Simple Vehicle Wiring Harness for Factory Tow Package part # HM11143395 which is a fit for a 2008 Toyota Tundra will allow an electric brake signal to pass-through for the trailer. The list of functions are as follows:
-Stop/Turn Signals
-Tail Signals
-Reverse Signals
-Brake Output
-Battery Charge
-Ground
Please note, you will still need a brake controller in order to control the trailer brakes as well and if you don't already have one the Tekonsha Primus IQ Trailer Brake Controller part # TK90160 will be an excellent option when used with the Tekonsha Plug-In Wiring Adapter part # 3040-P as this makes for a plug-in-play install.
