Helpful Expert Reply:
The install the Redarc Tow-Pro Elite # RED44FR using the Wiring Adapter # 331-TPH-020 for your 2018 Ram 1500 you'll need to find the vehicle-side connector for the adapter. This will be located up under your driver's side dash to the right of the steering column. Sometimes these connectors can be hidden really well and I've seen people pull down that fascia piece below their steering wheel to make locating it easier.
Once you can find that connector though the rest is just plug and play as far as wiring goes!
