We can certainly help you out with that. Doing the work yourself is certainly going to be a money saver for you.
My favorite hitch for your 2019 Kia Sorento is the EcoHitch, part # 306-X7320. It's the only hitch with the cross tube completely hidden behind the rear bumper. The other hitches that fit your Sorento have the cross tube under the bumper which is a much less factory look. I've attached a picture that shows the exposed cross tube on the other hitches.
The best wiring harness is the Tekonsha, part # 118583. It has a higher maximum amperage than the other options. It plugs in behind both tail lights and then you need to run a wire up to the Kia's battery. I've linked an install video, the install details, and an article on running the power wire which you may find helpful.
