Thank you for the photo it was very helpful; you are correct that the wiring harness # 3020-P is not what is shown in your photo though I believe you are looking at the wrong connector. Take a look at the other photo that I've attached which shows what the connector should look like in your 2008 Dodge Ram. I've also linked a video to a brake controller installation on an '08 Ram and at the 2:30 mark it will show you where that connector can be found, which is to the far left next to a white junction box.

Once you find this connector you will be able to use the # 3020-P wiring adapter with the Prodigy P3 Brake Controller # 90195.

What you can do is simply use the wiring adapter that will come with the Prodigy P3 # 90195 as if your Ram had no factory wiring, however, if you watch the linked video that shows a controller being installed on a 2008 Dodge Ram 1500 Quad Cab just like yours the installers says that "in this particular vehicle, it was buried behind the wires" and almost impossible to see. I strongly urge you to watch the video and take another look because it is very hard to find.
