Today in our 2012 Toyota Tundra, we'll be installing the Curt TriFlex Trailer Brake Controller part number C51140. We'll be using this in conjunction with the direct connect wiring harness part number C51362. To begin our install, we'll first locate the manufacturer's tow port located on the driver side just above the edge of the kick panel. We can then take the direct connect harness white plug end and plug directly into the manufacturer's tow port. We'll then go ahead and start routing the harness over towards the center of the vehicle near the console being careful to stay away from any moving parts, such as the parking brake pedal. Next, we need to mount the brake controller. To mount the brake controller, we'll use the brake controller bracket and hardware provided with the install kit. We'll go ahead and take the hardware and secure the bracket directly to the brake controller first. Then we can take the bracket and secure itto the dash using the hardware provided.
Now with the brake controller bracketsecured, we'll go ahead and adjust the brake controller as needed, and then tying down the fasteners. To clean up our install look, we're going to go ahead and take some wire loom and wrap it around the pigtail coming from the brake controller. Now with our wire loom installed, we'll go ahead and plug the pigtail to brake controller directly into the direct fit wiring harness. We can then go ahead and secure the wiring up underneath the dashwith the black zip ties. We'll cut up the excess in the zip ties, and this equatethe install of the Curt Tri-flex Trailer Brake Controller part number C51140 with our direct fit wiring harness part number C51362 on our 2012 Toyota Tundra.

I have a 2013 Toyota tundra. I would like to mount the brake controller inside the center console. Can the brake controller be mounted vertical??
