Look at the costs a bit closer:

Cable/Wiring £55 NEEDED
Control £37 NEEDED
adapter (13pin to 7 pin) £28 only needed if you have a 7 pin trailer. And these adapters are cheaper in other places, they are standard
software £15 Only needed if you want to deactivate the rear fog lamp when trailer is connected
programming (labour) £45. Only needed if you want to deactivate the rear fog lamp when trailer is connected

So the total cost is 92 GBP for wiring and control unit. Not much. Plug and play.

Compare to spending a day altering and cutting into wiring looms and doing stuff you are not familiar with and unsure about, with an end result that is not perfect.
