You might want to look at Prodigy by Tekonsha and the Jordan brake controllers. There are others that are good but these two get a lot of press. The Jordan connects to the brake pedal with a mechanical cable while the Prodigy is all electronic. Both are good units and I am sure you will get recommendations from both groups of users.

The BrakeSmart controller is getting rave reviews, but kinda pricey.
I really like my Prodigy.

I think you'll be very pleased with it. Far superior to the other/older models I have used.
