Hey Lisa, thanks for reaching out. We can absolutely provide all the parts needed to add the 7-way and brake controller to your 2023 Toyota RAV4 TRD. Here is what you will need:
- Curt T-Connector Vehicle Wiring Harness with 4-Pole Flat Trailer Connector # C56434
- Universal Installation Kit for Trailer Brake Controller - 7-Way RV and 4-Way Flat - 10 Gauge Wires # ETBC7
- Redarc Tow-Pro Liberty Brake Controller w/ Universal Wiring Harness - Dash Knob - Proportional # RED52VR
That is everything you need to add a 4-flat/7-way combo and the electric brake controller. I really like the Redarc controller because it installs completely behind the dash. All you see is the small LED control knob. It's easy to use and has a nice factory look that blends with the interior.
Will you be installing this yourself? Or taking it to a shop?
