Brake Controller and 7-Way Recommendation for 2011 Honda Pilot
Question:
I confirmed with my Honda dealer that I do have the tow package. Tekonsha 118491 looks like it work. What budget-conscious brake controllers will go with it and a 2011 Honda Pilot, please?

You are correct, the Tekonsha OEM Replacement Vehicle Wiring Harness with 7-Way Trailer Connector part # 118491 that you referenced is a confirmed fit for your 2011 Honda Pilot with the factory tow package. Then for a really great brake controller that is also budget friendly you can't beat the proportional Brake EVN # TK63VR which is one of the least expensive options we offer and also one of the better performing options as well. To install it you would just need the part # 3070-P and you'd be set.
