2019 Ford Ranger XLT
Hi everyone, I'm new here. I need help and I've spent a very long time looking for the answers and the dealership has no idea and says they can't help me.

(Atlanta, Georgia, USA)

For backstory, I had a 2021 F-150 with all of the available features and it got totaled 3 months after I got it and my Ranger was the cheapest truck that I could find in my area. I bought it used. I can't afford a bigger truck so please don't waste our time saying "just get a bigger truck". The number of times I've read that online is innumerable! If I could afford it, I would!

1: I'm trying my hardest to get the "OEM" Redarc Trailer Brake controller with the third brake light wiring harness. The dealership says that they're "obsolete", whatever that is supposed to mean, and that they can't get it no matter what. Does anyone know where I can get it? Also, is there anywhere else that I can put it that's not where Ford said to put it?

Or is there an alternative to it that I can get that will work with the automatic emergency braking? I've been checking out the Curt Spectrum but I'd prefer the Redarc.

2: Can I add the power folding mirrors/the floodlight mirrors? If so, what is needed to do that?

If something has been talked about before, and you can give me the link to it, you don't have to explain it to me, if you don't want to. You can just reply with the link.

I appreciate any information on the subject.

Thank you guys for helping!
