Everything looks perfect!

Starting with the trailer hitch, the Curt Class III Receiver Hitch # C13153 that you referenced is confirmed to fit your 2017 Hyundai Santa Fe SE and will work great. This hitch will use existing holes in the vehicle's frame for a no-drill installation. I have attached an installation video on your vehicle that you can use for reference.

Moving on to the cargo carrier, the Curt 24x60 Cargo Carrier # C18151 that you also mentioned will work perfectly with the above mentioned hitch on your Hyundai Santa Fe. This will fit into the 2 inch receiver opening and there will be no interference between the carrier and your rear bumper, even when folded up against the vehicle for storage. This is a really nice cargo carrier that features a 500 pound weight capacity and inside dimensions of 60-1/8 inches wide, 23-3/4 inches deep, and 5-1/2 inches tall.

Lastly, our Hitch Receiver Lock # e98882 is an excellent choice. This will work well with the carrier and your hitch to help deter theft of your cargo. It includes 2 keys.

This will be all that you need to install the trailer hitch on your vehicle and secure a nice cargo carrier to its receiver opening. Depending on what you plan to load into the carrier, you might also be interested in a Cargo Bag # 988501 or Tie-Down Straps # IMF12637 to secure the cargo into place.
