Hello Tim, thanks for reaching out. We do offer a wiring harness for the 2024 Mercedes-Benz GLS450. If you need to install a brake controller use the Curt Powered Tail Light Converter # C59236 along with the Universal Installation Kit # ETBC7L. These two kits combined contain everything you need to wire the vehicle with a 7-way trailer connector and use a wireless brake controller like the Curt Echo # C51180 which is what I recommend. This controller plugs directly into the 7-way and is Bluetooth enabled so everything is controller via the Curt smartphone app. The video linked below will show you the Curt Echo brake controller in more detail. Feel free to reach out if you have any other questions.
