Question:
Just wondering what additional wiring harness or relay would bee needed to properly install. What about a brake controller? Basically I just want to ensure I get everything I am going to need been over 15 years since I have installed a hitch..

For wiring, and a brake controller to go with the Curt Trailer Hitch # 13241 you would want the following products:
For wiring you would need to start with a Curt Custom Fit Vehicle Wiring # C56225. This will provide you with a functioning 4-way and comes with all of the relays you would need. Check out the video and installation instructions I attached.
Now to convert the 4-way to a 7-way in order to install a brake controller you will need a Brake Controller Installation kit # ETBC7. Video and instructions attached for these also.
For a brake controller I would recommend you get a Prodigy P2 brake controller # 90885. This is one of our best selling brake controllers because of how easy it is to install and how well it works.
