Question:
I need to add a brake controller to my 2025 Honda Pilot with a factory tow package, which one would you recommend and I was curious if the Redarc RED74CR came with the harness to connect to the Honda or would I need to splice the two together.

Hello Brett!
Congrats on the new 2025 Honda Pilot! What is your new favorite feature?
The Redarc is actually my go to when I recommend brake controllers. I really like the dash mounted knob, it makes it super simple to adjust the sensitivity of the brakes, and we never like those emergency situations but if it does happen you have that override button right in from of you.
For your 2025 Honda Pilot with factory tow package you are going to want the Redarc Tow-Pro Liberty Brake Controller w/ Custom Harness - Dash Knob - Up to 2 Axles - Proportional # RED74CR, this part number is going to be the brake controller and the vehicle specific pigtail for your Honda for a super simple install. But it looks like you already knew that, but just needed some confirmation. Don't forget to grab a Universal Mounting Panel for Redarc Tow-Pro Trailer Brake Controller Control Knob # 331-TPSI-001 for a nice clean looking install.

Hey Brett, how did the Redarc Tow-Pro Liberty end up working with your Pilot’s factory tow package? Did the custom harness make the hookup as easy as expected? Your feedback could help others setting up the same brake controller.
