Prodigy Wireless Brake Controller by Tekonsha

I'm planning on buying this controller later this spring. eTrailer has it for cheaper: Tekonsha Prodigy RF Brake Controller - Proportional - Trailer Mounted Tekonsha Brake Controller 90250

I've got the hitch on the X5 already, but I also plan to tow my camper with my Toyota Tacoma. While this is more expensive than just having a regular Prodigy controller (which I've already got too), it will certainly be cheaper than having a brake controller wired into the X5. That, and I don't have to worry about a mounting spot inside the X5 (or the Tacoma for that matter....)

I'll then be able to just move the remote from vehicle to vehicle, depending on which one will be used to tow the camper.
