Just installed the Reese Towpower Brakeman IV with the Tekonsha 3014-P Wiring Adapter--for less than $45 from Amazon. Found a tiny pass-through from the driver side behind the dash over to the glove box. Drilled a small hole on left side on glove box and mounted with velcro inside on that left side. Adapter was perfect length--barely. Very accessible if you need to get to it while driving and totally out of sight--better than the mythical Mopar version! You can easily go with a higher end proportional controller in the same place but this one is a compact size and fits my needs perfectly. Very adjustable with digital readout--and does not have to be mounted horizontally like some. Extremely happy with it.

Not the best pics. First one is adapter wire exiting from behind dash. It is hidden when carpet snapped back. Second is driver side. Third is installed controller. No links--but you can easily search for both on Amazon. Controller was about $29 and the adapter about $13.
