RV Battery charge wire

I installed my Prodigy yesterday and I need to put a relay under the hood to control the battery charging circuit. Has anybody done this and can give me a hint on a good location to cut into the factory wiring harness battery charge wire? Wire colors, terminal #'s? The factory charge wire also provides 12V to the brake controller, I plan on using a continuous duty relay controlled with a toggle switch.

Thanks in advance:
