Don't let the existence of a trailer brake control drive the decision.

Modern controllers are easy to install as they use a pendulum and hall effect ( magnet ) sensor. You need one wire to the battery , one to the trailer brakes, one to the light bulb side of the brake light switch and one to ground. Also, the trailer must have a good ( 14 G min ) ground wire as everything electrical must feed through that wire.
