Is it on the passenger side or the driver side toward the rear or more toward the front? Still having a hard time locating this any help would be appreciated

My situation also relate to electric trailer brakes:

So even though I have installed these in the past, I'm having a trailer place install one in this pristine 73K vehicle.
