I did it myself. It isn't hard.
I did make 1 change. Not to the actual installation on the RV, but to the source that it reads.
I don't plug it into the plug on the Ready Brute Elite tow bar. I bought a 12v relay and wired it so my car's brake light activates the relay. Then I ran a long cord from the relay, and THAT is what I plug into the monitor light. The monitor light does not come on when the Ready Brute Elite activates. It comes on when the car's brake pedal is pressed. A small, but to me, significant difference.
