- Looking at the installation instructions, as well as the video, trimming will not be required for the installation of the # e28AR. It appears as though the removal of panels only applies to the Kia Sorento, not your 2023 Santa Fe. However, you will have to lower the exhaust to be able to access the weld nuts.
I have attached the installation video below, along with the written instructions for your reference.

- The plate you see on the hitch (see photo) provides a mounting point for the trailer connector bracket.
For a 4-pole connector, you would use # 18144. For a 5-pole, use # TR20046 and for a 6 or 7-way connector, use part # 18138. Hardware is included with the brackets.
If you do not want to locate the connector at this location you may be able to remove a grommet in the spare tire compartment in the cargo area of your Santa Fe and locate it there.

- Great question!
The Saris Bones 2 Bike Rack # SA805BL has been confirmed by Saris to fit your 2019 Hyundai Santa Fe. The only note they have about the installation though is to make sure the lower feet are placed into the license plate well as opposed to on your bumper.
With that being said, trunk mount bike racks can damage spoilers if they are loaded to their max and/or used a lot. Since these types of racks are also touching the paint on the body of your vehicle I tend to lean towards...

With one backing plate on each end and one in the middle it will give you plenty of support to secure your motorcycle.

view full answer... - How Do I Tell if My Hyundai Santa Fe Has a Tow Package?
- A tow package for your 2007 Hyundai Santa Fe could be a frame mounted trailer hitch and trailer wiring harness. If you have either or both of those two things you could pretty easily assume you have the tow package.
Another option you have is to take the VIN of your vehicle to a Hyundai dealer and they will be able to tell you.
If you end up having the tow package but do not have a hitch the Draw-Tite Max-Frame Trailer Hitch Receiver item # 75471 that you looked at would be a great option....

- Any roof rack will impact the performance and usability of a sun or moon roof. Using a roof box like the Malone 18B Profile, part # MPG911 will create more difficulties because of its clamps. I don't recommend using the sun roof or moon roof with a roof rack or roof box equipped.

- Your 2009 Hyundai Santa Fe is not pre-wired for a 7-Way or 6-Way connector so you will need to do a bit more wiring to install a brake controller on your vehicle. Depending on the connector on your trailer you can use either the Brake Controller 7 & 4 Way Installation Kit, item # ETBC7, or the Brake Controller 6 and 4 Way Installation Kit, item # ETBC6, to wire your vehicle for an electric brake controller and 12 volt power, to provide accessory power to the trailer. All of the hardware...

view full answer... - Correct Engine Block Heater Location for 2011 Hyundai Genesis with 3.8L V6 Engine
- I checked with the manufacturer, Kat's, about the Kat's Heaters Custom Fit Engine Block Heater part # KH11812 which is a fit for a 2011 Hyundai Genesis with 3.8L V6 Engine. The correct location is on the right rear "RR" side of the engine as seen in the attached photo. Unfortunately, Kat's does not provide exact step by step instructions for installation. It's possibly removal of existing component is required for installation but that will be up to the discretion of the installer.
view full answer... - Does Removing Portion of Heat Shield To Install Trailer Hitch on 2016 Hyundai Sonata Harm Vehicle
- Actually, removing the heat shield when installing the Draw-Tite # 24965 receiver hitch on your 2016 Hyundai Sonata isn't a problem because the hitch itself provides more heat protection than the flimsy sheet metal that the heat shield is constructed of. Removing a portion of or even all the heat shield is a pretty common occurrence when installing a trailer hitch. I've linked the installation video for reference.
I've linked the installation video for the # 24965 for your convenience.
view full answer... - Can the Draw-Tite Wiring Harness # 118258 be Installed Outside of a 2012 Hyundai Santa Fe
- You are correct, the purpose of pulling the wires into the vehicle is to protect the converter box from the outside elements, but also to protect the T-connection points between the wiring harness and the vehicle connectors and to protect the in-line fuse on the wiring harness.
I would recommend against leaving the entire wiring harness outside of the vehicle because of the many different parts that need to be protected from the outside elements and if any moisture enters the converter...
