I attached a page that I took from the install instructions for the Curt brake controller # C51170 that you referenced that covers the install of the knob of the brake controller. Basically a backing plate attaches to the dash with included hardware and then the knob attaches to it.
I also attached a link the the complete install instructions to this page which are also available on the product page.
