I would be happy to! The 7-Pole and 4-Pole Trailer Connector Sockets w/ Mounting Bracket and Wiring item # HM40975-11998 is exactly what you need to use the Curt Echo Wireless Brake Controller item # C51180.

You can skip the step where you wire the blue brake controller wire to the cab of your vehicle. You won't need it with the Echo.
