Question:
Hi, I have a 2016 Hyundai Santa Fe Sport. I installed a hitch for our bike rack, but now I want to add all the wiring necessary to pull our camper. I have the 2 plugs w/caps behind the plastic cover on left frame rail, so according to your video, I have the proper factory hook ups. I need everything to pull my camper with the 7 pin round connector, and I also want to pull my boat with the 4 pin flat connector. I need a brake controller for the camper. There are SO many products on your site. I want to be sure that all the various parts will work together. I would prefer plug and play without a lot of splicing. I definitely want a proportional controller, and like the look of the tow pro with the knob. Also, is there a cap available to pop into an unused space with the knob on my dash to keep things clean looking? I looked everywhere on your site for a tech help phone number, but couldn’t find one.

So since you have the factory tow package on your 2016 Hyundai Santa Fe Sport the first thing you need is the 7-way kit part # TK24FR that you referenced. This kit comes with wiring for a brake controller install so to install the Redarc Tow Pro Elite part # RED44FR you'd just use the included wiring of the controller to splice then to the brake controller wiring and you'd have a really great and out of the way proportional brake controller.
The only more discrete proportional option would be the Curt Echo # C51180 which basically just plugs into the active 7-way and once synced to your smart phone is ready to tow.
The only way to have both a 7-way and a 4-way would be to swap out the 7-way of the TK24FR and use the part # 30955 in it's place.
