Question:

I ordered the subject part number for the referenced vehicle. I received two packages, one #55151, and one #56496. Questions: 1. Did I receive the correct parts? 2. If so how does what I received fit together? 3 I watched your video on wiring a 2021 Genesis GV80 and dont see a wiring diagram on your website to fit this together? 4, If I did not receive the correct parts I need to search for them locally ASAP.

You did indeed receive the correct parts. When we sell the Curt # C59496 powered taillight wiring converter we kit it together with the # 55151 power converter wiring kit. The wiring kit is used to run from the taillight converter box up to the positive battery terminal which provides power for the trailer taillights. The # C59496 wouldn't work without the wiring kit.

I don't have a specific wiring diagram because the # C59496 is a universal fit product that fits hundreds of vehicles, it would be impossible to develop vehicle-specific instructions for each vehicle it's compatible with. The the good news is that we've installed this harness on a 2021 Genesis GV80, the linked video will walk you through the process, and I'll link to a help article that describes the process of running the 12V feed to the battery.
