Parts Needed To Add 7-way Connector To 2018 Kia Sorento Without Factory Tow Package
Question:
I was wondering if this C56256 part fits my 2018 kia sorento awd ex with a v6. I already installed a curt class 3 hitch on it. Im towing a 17ft boat that has a single axel with the 7 pin circle connecter. It does not have trailer brakes either. I also probably need the 4 pin to 7 adapter as well Im assuming. And if this is correct part do u have in stock. Thanks

Since your 2018 Kia Sorento EX AWD with a V6 engine does not have the factory tow package the Curt T-Connector Vehicle Wiring Harness with 4-Pole Flat Trailer Connector # C56256 you were lookin at will fit perfectly and will give you a 4-way connector.
Since your boat trailer has a 7-way connector but does not have trailer brakes you can use the Adapter 4-Pole to 7-Pole and 4-Pole # 37185 which will plug into your newly installed 4-way connector and give you both a 4-way and 7-way connector.
Using the no drill mounting bracket # 18140 will allow you to mount the 7-way to your trailer hitch receiver.
I included videos for each of the products mentioned for you to take a look at.
