They often take the feed from the trailer connector socket on your towbar.

Alden, our 2012 had the brake feed spliced into the wiring of the brake light as part of the wiring to the trailer plug.
When I did our 2015 I found a plug in the factory wiring, LH rear (above the torch) where the trailer harness is connected. I simply plugged in and brought the wire forward to the controller.
Both have worked perfectly with no issues with Incandescent or LED trailer lights.
It is possible your 2018 retains a similar plug.
I have a P3 in the little cubby in front of the console.
John

My MY18 with an OEM towbar has the module in he rear lhs as well, remove the little tub and can access it. It is wired with both brake feed to the trailer plug and brake wire feed. So all I did was run twin core to my tow pro from that plug.
