Just to add to the 12v plug conversation...
I added the Mopar controller to my 21 JLURD and it works great, I've used it a few times. Didn't replace the 12v plug and didn't miss it that much but...
Fast forward...my wife took the Wrangler and gave me her Kia so I traded it for a 22 JTRD. I was using the 12v plug some and since the Mopar one didn't integrate into the vehicle like in my Ram 2500 I started to look around other options. I ended up with the Redarc Tow-Pro Liberty Electric Brake Controller https://a.co/1BgNidb and REDARC Electronics RAM Suitable Tow-Pro Brake Controller Harness https://a.co/gRaJxsa (had to re-pin 2 wires). Works just a good/easy as the Mopar controller and was half the price. Plus I gotta keep the 12v plug. I mounted it right next to 12v plug by drilling a small hole.
Pulled the same cargo trailer a few times with no issues and I can still use the 12v plug. So it worked out better than the Mopar one for me.
Just adding to give something to think about. Both the Mopar and the RedArc controllers are great and easy to use and install. But I'd go Redarc again, just to save a few bucks and the 12v plug.
