Question:
I have a 2008 Toyota FJ Cruiser with OEM hitch and 4-flat wiring harness installed. I am looking for the best brake controller available plus the proper wiring/connectors/adapterw for a Forest River Flagstaff Micro-LIte 21FBRS travel trailer. The trailer has two axles, 4 electric brakes.

The Tekonsha P3 Brake Controller # 90195 that you referenced is one of the best brake controllers on the market, not only does it perform well as one of the best proportional brake controllers on the market, but it has one of the best diagnostic systems that is constantly checking for proper connection, shorted magnets and much more. It would be the controller I would recommend for your 2008 Toyota FJ Cruiser towing a Forest River Flagstaff Micro-Lite 21 FBRS travel trailer.
Check out the review video for this controller that I attached for you.
Since you already have a 4-way wiring kit the next thing you will need to install the # 90885 would be the Brake Controller 7 & 4 Way Installation Kit # ETBC7. This comes with everything you would need to install the brake controller. I attached a link to installation instructions and a link to a video of this product being installed on a very similar 2008 Toyota FJ Cruiser as yours.
