I recently purchased a travel trailer and my truck has the Class III Towing package. My question is where inside the cab is the hook up for the Brake Controller? I purchased a Prodigy P2 and the Ford harness. Any suggestions as to where to mount it? It looks really tight on the driver side. Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Bobby

The plug is very well concealed in the area under the dash close to the steering wheel.

Mine is mounted on its side (the RV place said its working properly in this orientation) by the hood release. I can access the dial to set it but only just. It's there more so I don't kick or hit it with my knee every time I get in the vehicle.

No problems with hitting it with knees, easy to reach, and watch when towing, easy to hide wires, and used existing brackets so I didn't drill holes
 






Thanks UKPONY and BANNONJR.
 






I got the Brake Controller installed this weekend took a maximum of 10 minutes. I had purchased the Ford harness so it was a simple plug in and used rivets to mount to the area close to the same place as BannonJr did. Thanks guys
