Helpful Expert Reply:

Yes, the dash-mounted brake controllers you are referring to are from Redarc, and will absolutely work with your 2021 Jeep Wrangler with manual transmission and the factory tow package. In fact, since you have the factory tow package, this will just be a plug-and-play set up. Here is exactly what you will need:

- Redarc Tow-Pro Elite Trailer Brake Controller # RED44FR

- Tekonsha Custom Wiring Adapter for Trailer Brake Controllers - Jeep # 3073-P

- Redarc Tow-Pro Wiring Adapter for Tekonsha Brake Controller Harness # 331-TPH-017

The Tow-Pro wiring adapter is needed so you don't have to splice any wires; one end of it will plug into the Tow-Pro Elite and the other end of it will plug into the Tekonsha wiring harness and you're set!

The Tow-Pro Elite # RED44FR is a great choice for your '21 Wrangler because of the dash-mounted control knob you mentioned, which not only looks great, but it also keeps a bulky unit out of your cab. That knob also allows you more control over your trailer braking power than any other option, which is why I highly recommend going with this unit.
