Default Photo of location of the brake controller connector under the dash

I understand that this brake controller connector can be hard to find under the dash and somewhere above the brake pedal area. Does anyone have a good photo of this under-dash connector that they can share here? My truck has a factory 7 way trailer connection on the factory trailer hitch, so it should be equipped with the harness in the cab. I'm having a hard time finding it.

There are couple of pictures here https://www.etrailer.com/p-3020-P.html The connector is hiding behind the big wiring bundle going into the bulkhead connector.

Is that the one with the white plastic and a bolt in the center? If so, kinda explains why it can be so hard to find.
