Question:
I want to order an etrailer hitch for my 2026 Hyundai Santa Cruz LIMITED. I have the etrailer hitch in my cart. I dont see a wiring kit for a 7 pin hook up so I can utilize brakes to bring me to full towing capacity. Do you have a 7 pin kit for this my vehicle?

Expert Reply:
Hey Joe, we can definitely help but on lighter duty vehicles like your 2026 Hyundai Santa Cruz we only have 4-way connector kits available like the Curt # C93DQ. So what you would need to do after installing this is install the # ETBC7 kit which will convert the 4-way to a 7-way and also comes with everything needed to wire in a brake controller.
If you haven't picked out a brake controller I would highly recommend the Redarc Tow Pro Liberty part # RED52VR as it's performs really well, is super reliable, and also only puts a small knob on the dash of your truck which is a lot nicer looking for sure. This is the brake controller I convinced my brother and Dad to buy as well.
What are you planning on towing? By the way the etrailer hitch # e59ZV you referenced getting is a really great choice!
