Since you already have the factory wiring harness, you do not need the Tekonsha Custom Wiring adapter # 3040-p for your 2013 Toyota Tundra. The factory harness functions should be labeled, you cannot go by wire color since there is no standard for wire coloring. From what I have found, the factory harness has an additional green wire you will not need that may be taped off.
I recommend the Redarc Tow-Pro Liberty Brake Controller # RED24FR over the # RED44FR unless you need the time-delayed functionality in addition to the proportional controller.
The brake controller wire functions are as follows:
Input Power (Black)
Ground (White)
Brake Output (Blue)
Brake Lights (Red)
I have attached a review of the controller as well as the instructions for your reference.
