Parts Needed to Install Brake Controller in 2020 Nissan Armada with Tow Package

Question

Question:

I have a 2020 Nissan Armada with factory tow package. I am wondering if there is a vehicle-specific wiring adapter sold separately for my make/model/year? I am looking at ordering the Draw-Tite 5535 / Tekonsha Plug-In Adapter 3050-P. I cannot hard wire as this vehicle is a company lease. Thanks in advance.

The Tekonsha install harness part # 3050-P is the correct install harness for your 2020 Nissan Armada and is also the correct one to use with the Brake EVN # TK63VR you referenced as well.

For an even less invasive install the Curt Echo # C51180 only needs to plug into a 7-way at the rear of a vehicle and once synced to a smart phone is ready to tow.
