The Roadmaster Battery Charge Line Kit for Towed Vehicles # RM-156-25 has a circuit breaker to help isolate that circuit from issues, but it will not prevent back-feeding. If you want to prevent back-feeding which isn't typically an issue, you can use the Roadmaster Single Park Light Diode # RM-690. Because you are sharing power between two batteries at a low amperage there is very little risk of a surge issue. Another option is to use the Battery Isolation Solenoid # PK5231201 which... view full answer...
It would not be good to install the Charge Line Kit # RM-156-25 without the included circuit breaker. The circuit breaker is what would cut the current if something were to happen. view full answer...
Curt recommends the stabilizer strap with non-supported loads like bike racks to help support the hitch when going over bumps to prevent some of the vertical shock from being transferred to the hitch.
Curt does this as a precaution, it's not that Draw Tite or Hidden Hitch are stronger. Both hitch brands make outstanding hitches that are typically stronger than what they are rated for. I would say that Curt just happens to approach the idea of a bike rack/cargo carrier being used in a lower... view full answer...
The Kat's Heaters Custom Fit Engine Block Heater - Cartridge Style - 120V - 400 Watts # KH11812 can be left in the "RF" port of your 2012 Hyundai Elantra GL 1.8L engine block but you should only run the block heater for a couple of hours before you plan on cranking the engine. If you're like me and want things to be easy you can buy an outlet timer and set it to two hours before you plan on leaving for the day so that it will automatically kick on and start warming the engine block. view full answer...

I took a look at the online owner's manual for your 2012 Hyundai Elantra and it looks like the only thing stated is that it can be towed with the front wheels off of the ground. If you are looking for more specifics than that it would be best if you contact your local Hyundai dealer.
If you don't already have a tow dolly then I highly recommend the Demco Kar Kaddy SS # DM9713045 for a few reasons; it has tilting/folding ramps and a folding tongue to make it easier to store (whether at... view full answer...

The LED Light Kit for Post-Style Boat Guide-Ons, # CE27656A, will wire into the running light circuit of your boat trailer for power. They do have ground wires and will need to be grounded to a clean, corrosion free bare metal surface. Or if possible you can attach the grounds to the main trailer connector ground which is likely not going to be submerged on a boat trailer. view full answer...

Hardwiring your 2014 Hyundai Elantra with the # C59496 trailer wiring harness will involve tapping into the circuits feeding your taillights and using a circuit tester included in the kit to determine which wires are your turn signals, running lights and brake lights. Once you determine the functions, you will want to run the harness's yellow wire to the left turn signal circuit, the brown wire to the running light circuit, the red wire to the brake lamp circuit, and the green wire the... view full answer...

The hitch will fit perfectly, no worries. When we installed the Draw-Tite Class I hitch, # 24795 on a 2010 Hyundai Elantra, we found that the receiver tube will sit just aft of the tow loop you mentioned, as you can see in the photo I've provided.
If you plan on using the hitch for light duty towing, you'll need a few other items to complete your towing system:
Trailer wiring harness, part # 118433
Ball mount, part # 3594
1-7/8 inch trailer ball, part # 19256 or 2 inch ball # 19258

I have provided a link below to the installation instructions for Draw-Tite Sportframe Trailer Hitch Receiver, # 24835. The hitch does not require any holes to be enlarged. Installation of this trailer hitch does require using the fishwire technique to insert bolts through an access hole and out of the mounting holes. The instructions explain the this method but I have also included a video below that should help. view full answer...
In the install video for the Draw Tite hitch part # 24795 that you referenced our installer references using a thread tap to clean out the weld nuts of the 2008 Hyundai Elantra so that the bolt will thread in. The size thread tap you would need would be the same as the size bolts that are used to install the hitch, M12 x 1.25 x 40mm CL8.8.
I attached a couple help articles on cleaning weld nuts for you to check out as well. view full answer...
