  • Recommended Roof Rack for Roof Mounted Tent on 2017 Kia Sportage
  • According to Rhino Rack, their available roof rack for your 2017 Sportage that uses the # RRSX023 roof rack feet isn't rated for a roof top tent. The good news is that Yakima has a rack that would work. The rack would consist of the following parts: 50 Inch CoreBars, part # Y00421 RidgeLine Towers, part # Y00145 RidgeClip fit clips, part # Y06021 The rack would have a 600 lb static capacity (while the vehicle isn't in motion) which would be perfect for a roof mounted tent.

  • Availability Of A 2" Trailer Hitch For A 2023 Kia Sorento PHEV
  • Yes, we do offer a trailer hitch that will fit your 2023 Kia Sorento PHEV. I recommend the Curt class 3 hitch # C34ER. This hitch has a 2" reciever so it will be perfect for your Kuat NV bike rack (great choice of rack by the way. I have one too!). The hitch has been confirmed to fit all models of the 2023 Sorento, including the PHEV models. I have linked our install video below if you want to take a look.

  • Recommended 2 inch Hitch for a 2015 Kia Soul
  • We have the EcoHitch Hidden Trailer Hitch Receiver item # 306-X7326 that fits your 2015 Kia Soul and has a 2" receiver so that you can utilize your steel Swagman bike rack like item # S63381. Not only does this trailer hitch have the 2" receiver that you're looking for, but it also features a hidden crosstube so that the only thing you can see is the receiver itself. I have attached some photos and a video of this installed on a '17 Kia Soul for you to check out. Please note that all...

  • Recommended Chrome and Black Running Boards for 2020 Kia Sorento EX
  • I may have a solution for you, but there is not a chrome/black combo running board for the 2020 Kia Sorento EX. However, the AeroTread Running Boards w/ Custom Installation Kit - 5" Wide - Aluminum - Polished Stainless # AA2051028 are a polished chrome running board with black treads that would fit on your Sorento. These are the only running boards currently available for your Sorento EX, but they're a really nice solution. I've linked a review video of these on a similar Sorento for...

  • Is There a Suspension Enhancement for the 2012 Kia Sorento LX
  • I may have a solution for you, but the AirLift 1000 # AL61730 are not a confirmed fit on the 2012 Kia Sorento and there are not any suspension enhancements available for your vehicle. Additionally, these types of systems don't work to "lift" your vehicle and much as they reduce the sag when you connect a trailer; the good news is that there are other ways you can help fight off the sag you might be getting when towing. I recommend using a weight distribution hitch, which is designed to...

  • Low Beam Headlight and Fog Lamp Bulbs for 2013 Kia Optima
  • When it comes to replacing the low beam bulbs on your 2013 Kia Optima, one option is the Putco PURE High-Performance H11B Ion Spark White Halogen Bulbs, # P230011BSW. The bright white light offers a subtle blue tint for a custom look and is designed to improve visibility. For your fog lamps, one option would be to go with the Putco Optic 360 High Power LED Fog Lamp Bulbs # P250008WW. These bulbs have a 1-year warranty and are designed with the high color temperature to improve visibility...

  • Availability of Trailer Wiring Harness for 2013 Kia Forte Koup
  • I spoke with my representative at Tow Ready, who tells me that because the Forte Koup is not often used as a tow vehicle, a plug-and-play trailer wiring harness like the # 118431 you mentioned is not offered. For your Forte Koup, a universal fit hardwired harness like the # 119178KIT is recommended. The 118431 fits the 2007-2010 Kia Rondo or the 2010-2012 Kia Soul, but not your Forte Koup.

  • Is The Ignik Black Travel Case Available Separately
  • The Ignik black travel case unfortunately isn't sold separately at this time so you would have to purchase both the tank and case with part # GN74FR.

  • Is There a Plastic SmartPlug RV TV/Internet Inlet with 2 Coax Ports
  • We do not have an extra/replacement coax port for the SmartPlug RV TV/Internet Inlet # SM88VR, nor do we have a plastic version with 2 coax ports. However, if you already have the SmartPlug RV TV/Internet Inlet # SM58FR, you can remove one of the coax ports and switch it to the plastic SmartPlug. I will also say that the SmartPlug RV TV/Internet Inlet # SM58FR only weighs just over a pound, so it would not be too heavy for an RV sidewall.

  • Availability of a 2007 Kia Sorento Tow Package Wiring Harness
  • If your vehicle has the factory tow package then you can use the Tow Package Wiring Harness with 4 Pole Trailer Connector, item # C56332, which will simply plug into the connector on the passenger side frame rail (see instructions). I would recommend checking the connector with a circuit tester, item # 3808 if needed, before purchasing to be sure that all of the wiring functions are present in the connector you mentioned on your frame rail. If the vehicle is not equipped with the tow package...

  • Availability of Light-Duty Weight Distribution System for Coleman/Fleetwood Campers
  • The Reese Mini 350 Weight Distribution for Fleetwood/Coleman trailers you referred to, part # RP66041 has been discontinued and is no longer available. For trailers with lower tongue weights under 400 lbs, Reese recommends their Light Duty Weight Distribution System w/ Sway Control, part # 66557. The frame brackets would need to mount on the trailer frame between 25 and 32 inches rearward of the center of the trailer ball, as shown in the diagram I provided. If your trailer frame is clear...

  • Mounting Hardware Needed to Mount Older Yakima Accessories to Aero-Style Crossbars
  • If you have a variety of older Yakima products that you want to mount to crossbars that are 2-1/2" wide x 3/4" tall then the Universal MightyMounts # Y03590 would be your best bet. These adapters fit a wide variety of Yakima products but they are somewhat specific. If you can let me know what products you are wanting to mount them on I can see about verifying if these will fit or what other parts you may need.

  • Wiring Harness for a 2014 Kia Sorento SX V6
  • If your 2014 Kia Sorento SX V6 has the factory tow package you can use custom-fit plug in wiring harness # C56332 from Curt. This harness installs without having to cut or splice wires on your new Sorento. Since your hitch includes a mounting point for the 4-pole trailer connector you might want to add on the mounting bracket # 18144. If you do not have the factory tow package you'll instead use the hard-wire harness # C56256 from Curt. This wiring kit will require you to do a bit of splicing...

  • Availability of Class II Hitch for 2014 Kia Optima Sedan
  • Your 2014 Kia Optima has only light-duty Class I hitches offered for it, such as the Curt # C11025. All can be seen on the link provided. Each one shares the same 200-lb tongue weight capacity and each can carry up to 2 bikes on a hitch-mount rack. Please note that my research did not confirm any official rated towing capacity for the 2014 Optima sedan; your owner's manual should be consulted before towing any trailer. The reason only Class I hitches are offered for your Optima, and for...

  • Can I Purchase the Curt Class I HItch 11110 Without the Ballmount and Pin and Clip
  • The ballmount, pin and clip are packaged with the hitch and the installation hardware and we cannot separate them. Curt includes them, because on Class I and II hitches, only certain ball mounts should be used. If you do not want a hitch with the draw bar and pin and clip, I would suggest Draw-Tite part # 24839. Yes, you can use a load carrier or a cargo carrier on either of these hitches, so long as the cargo carrier is designed for use with 1-1/4 inch Class I hitches. The tongue weight...
