• Is Curt Stabilization Strap Needed for Platform Bike Racks or Just Hanging Bike Racks
• For Curt trailer hitches that have the warning regarding the use of stabilization strap # 18050 the warning is for any and all non-trailer loads. This would include platform style bike racks. How to attach the strap is the challenge. It doesn't have to be # 18050 just as long as whatever is used is rigid, so you couldn't use a bungee cord or anything with elasticity. Ideally you would attach the strap somewhere on the rack and then to the vehicle up higher than where it is attached on...

• Roof Rack Recommendation For a 2020 Kia Sorento
• I recommend going with the Yakima CoreBar system for your 2020 Hyundai Sonata. This includes the CoreBars # Y00421, Baseline Towers # Y28TR, A Clip Kit # Y06180 and Base Clip Kit # Y06153. The CoreBar roof rack gives you a nice, sleek looking roof rack that has an aerodynamic design but is also made of steel so it's very durable. I've included a video of us installing this system on an older Sorento. Check it out!

• Will the Thule Passage Trunk Mount Bike rack Fit a 2012 Hyundai Sonata Hybrid
• The Thule Passage 2 trunk mount bike rack, # TH910XT, does fit the 2012 Hyundai Sonata Hybrid. The correct fit dial setting for this vehicle is 7.

I have included links to the installation instructions and a link to a video review of the bike rack for you. If...

• Does Draw-Tite Trailer Hitch 24940 Fit a 2015 Hyundai Sonata 2.0T
• Draw-Tite does not have any exclusions for trailer hitch # 24965 and the 2015 Hyundai Sonata with one exception: models that were built in a Korean assembly plant. These models do not have the proper holes in the frame to attach the hitch. You could have a Hyundai dealer run the VIN to determine which plant it was built in. Any trusted mechanic or RV dealer with a service center could install the hitch for you..

• Will My Older Thule Square Crossbars Work with the SportRack Semi-Custom Roof Rack # SR1002?
• I went ahead and just received an answer from Thule (the owners of Sportrack). Unfortunately, the older Thule square crossbars are not compatible with the SportRack Semi-Custom Roof Rack for Naked Roofs # SR1002. However, if you still want to use your older Thule square crossbars (with the channel slot in the bottom), I recommend the following additional parts: - Inno Feet for Square Crossbars - Naked Roofs - Black - Qty 4 # INSUT - Custom Fit Kit for Inno XS200, XS250, and INSU-K5 Roof...

• Which is the Correct T-One Wiring Harness for 2006-2009 Hyundai Sonatas
• I just looked up the 2006-2009 Hyundai Sonatas, and the T-One Wiring Harness, part # 118433, is in fact the correct wiring harness for those vehicles. I want to reassure that you did, in fact, order and receive the correct part for your vehicle. Sometimes the packaging on the parts can be misleading, as the parts may be compatible with several different makes, models and years.

• Does Thule Hull-A-Port Kayak Carrier Fit Yakima Roof Rack
• Yes, Yakima roof racks - including those that use BaseLine towers - are compatible with the Thule kayak carrier you asked about: - Thule Hull-A-Port Kayak Carrier # TH834 It's important to keep in mind what crossbars you have though, because if they are areo bars like the JetStream you will also need the Watersports Adapter # THXADAPT11. Your other option would be to go with a similar carrier that fits any style crossbar, without an adapter, the Yakima JayLow Kayak Carrier # Y04073 or...

• Will the Hollywood Racks Express 3 Bike Rack Fit a 2016 Hyundai Sonata
• The Hollywood Racks Express 2 Bike Rack part # HRE3 is not a fit for a 2016 Hyundai Sonata per Hollywood Racks but I do have a carrier for you. I recommend the Yakima FullBack 2 Bike Rack # Y02634.

• Using 2 Inch Accessory With 1-1/4 Inch Hitch Receiver
• You can only put a 1-1/4 inch hitch # C11325 on your 2008 Hyundai Sonata, but we can use something like this trailer hitch adapter # e93YR to convert your 1-1/4 hitch to a 2 inch hitch. With this adapter you will cut your weight capacity of the hitch in half since it's farther away from the original hitch tube. Make sure you do not exceed 100lbs on your rack.

• Trailer Hitch Receiver Fit for 2013 Hyundai Sonata for Bike Rack
• Like you said, there are trailer hitch receiver fits for a 2013 Hyundai Sonata, but they are all Class I hitches with a 1-1/4 inch receiver and there are no 2 inch hitches available for this vehicle. This can happen a lot of times with sedans or coupes that are not really designed for towing; a lot of times for these vehicles the hitch manufacturers will only make the smaller 1-1/4 inch hitches. So for a hitch, there are two fits for your 2013 Sonata, the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver #...
