Which Brake Controller and 7-Way Trailer Connector for 2022 Honda Passport
Question:
I'd like to install a brake controller and a 7-way trailer connector on my 2022 Honda Passport. Can you tell me what parts I'll need? Thanks!

I'd be happy to help with that!
For a brake controller, the Redarc Tow-Pro Liberty you'd looked at, part # RED24FR would be an outstanding choice. The body of the controller installs under the dash where it's out of sight (also where you won't bang your knee on it). You'd adjust the controller via the control knob, which can be mounted anywhere within the driver's reach. An unused switch knockout on the dash or console is the perfect spot for installing the knob. If you don't have a switch knockout available, a mounting bezel like # 331-TPSI-001 would give the install a factory appearance. You'll also need a brake control wiring harness, part # RED59FR which plugs into the factory connector under the dash to the left of the steering column.
For a 7-way, I'd recommend the Tekonsha # 118291 which is a plug and play installation.
