Can Curt Echo Under-Dash Brake Controller be Mounted in Rear of Vehicle
Question:
Can the Curt Echo under dash unit be mounted in the rear of the vehicle? I have convenient wiring there with tail lights and power as well as easily accessible space.

Expert Reply:
It cannot; the brake control wiring is underneath the dash, which is why the Echo Under-Dash (and all in-cab brake controllers) have to be mounted near that wiring in the front of the vehicle, underneath the dash. If you're okay with that, for the brake controller and wiring, you'd need the following:
- Curt Echo Under-Dash Wireless Brake Controller # C27JR
- Universal Wiring Adapter for Curt Trailer Brake Controllers # C51515
- Universal Installation Kit for Trailer Brake Controller # ETBC7
