Brake Controller Install Video on 2013 Toyota FJ Cruiser

Question

Question:

A few weeks ago I was on your site and I thought I watched a video on how to install a brake controller on an FJ cruiser that had a factory hitch. I cannot find it now. I’ve found other controller installation videos for other vehicles but what I liked about this one was that it actually installed it on my vehicle I’ve search your site, and YouTube with no luck. Can you send me a link to it? Thanks
