Default trailer tow wiring?

Its my understanding that ill need to wire in a brake controller box to make the most of my trailer tow pkg...is there any wiring under the dash/carpeting..or where do i need to splice in with the controller?

I think there is a thread showing the blue plug under the dash where you can plug in like 3 different aftermarket controllers.Do a search you should find it,it was just a few days ago.

Make sure you order a ram wiring adapter for your brake box. They are really easy to install. Frankly, I'm a dumbass when it comes to suff like that and I hooked it up with NO problems!
