Expert Reply:
To add a 7-way to your 2021 Toyota Highlander all you need is the 7-way kit part # TK57VR that you referenced. This has the 12 volt accessory circuit active but to activate the trailer brakes you'd need a brake controller like the Curt Echo Mobile part # C51180 which would just need to plug into the 7-way and once synced to your phone is ready to tow with.
