Parts Needed to Add 7-Way to 2020 Kia Telluride

Published 06/22/2023

Question:

I have a 2020 Kia Telluride S that has factory tow hitch with a2inch ball and 4 flat connection. Ive watched all of the different videos and still dont feel like I am confident on the answer. I want to upgrade to 7-blade, but I dont want it o be a partial upgrade. I want to have brakes and AUX power. What is the best way to achieve these. Also, I have been hunting for info on figuring out how to add a front-end receiver hitch as well in order to mount a winch. Searching for the answer to my latter question has proven futile and ai am hopeful you can help. thanks so much for your time and attention.

Adding a 7-way to your 2020 Kia Telluride with the functions you need is fairly simple. Since you already have a 4-way installed the only thing you need is the # ETBC7. This comes with the adapter, wiring, breakers, and everything else required for installation. It will connect to your existing 4-way and add 12V power, brake controller output, and auxiliary/reverse light functionality.

You aren't finding anything on a front hitch since there are no custom fit options available. This really only leaves you with two choices if you want to add one. The first is to install a universal hitch like the # 41990-07. This is a weld-on hitch so you will need to take it to a certified welder for installation. The second option is getting a receiver like # E17 and taking it to a fabricator to fashion a hitch for your vehicle.

I have attached an installation video below for your reference.
