Hi all,

We are considering purchasing a 2007 2720SL but want to make sure that we are going to be able to safely pull it with a 2005 Lexus RX330. The TM FAQ states that an electronic brake controller is needed on the TV but I have been informed by various hitch installers that a brake controller can not be installed on the Lexus since it has LED brake lights. The TM will be mostly used in Texas (flat terrain) so I am hoping that I will be able to get by without the brake controller. My questions are:

1. Should we be ok pulling the 2720SL with the RX330?
2. Does anyone know of a method to install a brake controller on a vehicle that has LED tail lights?

Thanks!

Scott
