Hi Ben!

The port on your 2024 Kia Telluride SX X-Line for a plug and play brake controller will be just to the left of the OBD2 port. I included an image of where it will be (it can be kind of tucked up and hidden) and what it should look like (the picture is the male side, but it should give you a good idea). With that said, you can send the picture(s) you have to me at [email protected] and I will definitely take a look at them.

As to the actual brake controller, I saw you were looking at the Curt Spectrum Brake Controller # C28GV. It's an ok brake controller and it will get the job done, but it definitely isn't my favorite. For that, I prefer the Redarc Tow-Pro Liberty Brake Controller # RED52VR. The Redarc controller are more reliable and they just work better. At least, in my opinion. You can also use the Curt Custom Wiring Adapter # C77BR and the Redarc Adapter Harness # 331-TPH-019 to make this a plug an play controller, though you will need to drill a hole somewhere in the dash (or a switch blank, which is the best way to do it) to mount the knob.

If you didn't want to drill anything, you could also use the Redarc Tow-Pro Link Bluetooth Brake Controller # RED57AR. This utilizes the 7-Way on the back of your vehicle and plugs in between the USCAR connector on the back of said 7-Way. Then you just mount the box up and out of the way and you are on your way. The controller is super easy to use, and the App is as well. It's a little pricy, but it's a great option. Again, in my opinion.

What kind of trailer are you planning on towing?
