How to fit a Break Controller in Mercedes Sprinter Van

HI, I have a trailer with electric brakes( an old Franklin trailer) and a Van that has NO Break Controller or wiring for activating them. Need to know what Controller do I buy(and where to buy it)...

Bad choice. Time-delay controllers suck. The ones recommended use motion sensors to active a controlled brake signal and work extremely well. I've driven a lot in the UK, I would not have less than the best on those tight and crowded roads.
