Wireless Brake Controller Similar to Tekonsha RV that Doesn't Require Trailer Drilling
Question:
I have a 2016 Volvo XC90 T8 and am going to be renting a travel trailer. The instructions seem to show this being attached with bolts to the travel trailer. Is there a mounting option for a trailer that I can’t modify?

Hey David, I have an easier solution for a brake controller that is similar to the Tekonsha RF part # TK94FR and won't require trailer modification. Instead you'd want the Curt Echo Mobile part # C51180 which basically just plugs into a 7-way and once synced to your smart phone is ready to tow with.
