Question:
Before I order, can I use the Redarc Tow-Pro Link on my 2026 Subaru Ascent? I installed a hitch but haven't added any wiring yet. I'd rather use the Redarc remote than have a controller hanging under the dash.

Hey Ethan! Yes, you can use the Redarc Tow-Pro Link # RED57AR on your Ascent. You'll need to start by adding the Curt 4-Way Wiring Harness # C56040, then upgrade to a 7-way using the etrailer Installation Kit # e556GR.
This kit includes the wiring, breakers, and 7-way adapter with the USCAR connector the Link needs for installation. The controller plugs in-line behind the 7-way, so you won't have a brake controller hanging under the dash.
