Helpful Expert Reply:
For a brake controller I would recommend the Prodigy P3 Brake Controller part # 90195 for your 2016 Toyota Highlander. This is our best selling brake controller because of how well it works and how easy it is to setup. This is a proportional brake controller that senses the amount of braking the tow vehicle is applying and applies a proportionate amount to the trailer brakes. This will be the last brake controller you buy. It can easily be transferred to future vehicles as well.
To wire it into your vehicle you will need to start with a 4-way (if you do not have one). For that you would want the # 118449.
From there you would need to convert the 4-way to a 7-way so that you can install the brake controller. For that you will want the Brake Controller Install Kit and 7-Way Adapter part # ETBC7. I attached installation instructions and an install video for this product as well.
