Not sure if it worried you as it did me when I went to install a wired controller under the dash... have you ever seen what the knee airbag looks like deployed? Will it turn your P3 into a projectile?

I have seen folks mount their P3's over on the console side, but for ME in my 958, that was poor placement as my right leg shin would hit it occasionally.
I'm hoping that no unfortunate event occurs, but if it does, that the P3 will be pushed over towards the door.

2010 GTS with factory hitch kit want to add Prodigy P3
Do I need relay? If so can someone show me link to amazon prime that has said relay?
The stupid Prodigy RF stinks, and im sick of it, want something hardwired

I bought the relay and micro switch at Autozone, pretty cheap. I got a 12V 20A 5 pin relay and the 12V 20A micro switch. I followed these instructions from seabass on RennTech (http://www.renntech.org/forums/topic...comment-219937). I soldered the connections (rather than used wire nuts) and heat wrapped them and then taped it all up.
Works great - - it's an easy job. The hardest thing is digging underneath the dash for the factory trailer plug socket - I had to take off the lower dash panel to get better access to reach up into the upper dash area.

2006 Cayenne S - no factory tow package
Was trying to utilize the plug under the dash to add in a brake controller, followed the steps including the relay, but I have 0 output on the red/black brake light wire. Can't find any wire to tap into for a brake signal. Do these steps only work on vehicles with the factory tow package? Is there any signal I can use as a brake input to the controller?
