I have spent alot of time under my dash and im pretty sure I dont have a plug for a brake controller. Cant i just tap into the wires in the 7 round plug to wire it up. I love working on the truck and kinda picky on who works on it plus I dont want to pay some tool 80.00 to splice in 4 wires. Thanks Karl

I say you have it. It should be right below the ash tray and it is hanging on with a plastic push plug. Here is pic Brake controller plug

Sure you can hard wire it yourself. Just follow the instructions with the controller and it's pretty easy. The pigtail just makes it a plug and play so now you just get to play.

Jim, im sure i don't have that plug under my dash. Did you need to remove the kick plate ( near your knee) to see it?

like excavator said it should be under the ash tray.If you look up under the dash there should be a metal support with a sqaure hole in it. Inside that hole there should be a grey connector and that is the connector you are looking for. Not saying yours is there but that is where most of the others I have hooked up have been.
Jim
