In the car? Seems like a lot of hassle.
It's not hassle unless you consider the whole experience of owning an RV a hassle. Forget the laws, which I always refuse to even discuss and be concerned only with stopping quicker. Even if it's only a matter of 12" or so better and especially with the unpredictable panic stops.
Back to the install, choose NSA's READYBRAKE or their complete tow bar ass'y, the READYBRAKE ELITE for simplicity, effectiveness and the best bang for the buck. Also consider the optional breakaway that's equally as simple and even though no one ever hopes to test it.
