Question:
I have just bought and installed a trailer hitch from you guys on my 2017 Hyundai Santa Fe Sport. I now need the wiring, brake controller and whatever else is needed to be able to tow my cargo trailer, I want the 7 pin that’s what I have on my trailer and also the 4 pin in case I wanna rent a U-Haul, can you suggest the right products?

Hey Marco, thanks for reaching out!
To get all of the wiring and such on your 2017 Hyundai Santa Fe you'll need the following:
- Curt Wiring Connector # C59236
- Universal Installation Kit # ETBC7
- Tekonsha Voyager iD Brake Controller # TK26BR
- Mounting Bracket # 18136
This gives you everything you need for wiring as well as a brake controller that takes up minimal space inside your Santa Fe. The only other thing you'll need is a ball mount kit. If you don't already have one, then I recommend checking out the etrailer Adjustable 2-Ball Mount # e66PR because of how versatile it is.
Let me know if you have any questions!
