It sounds like you might be looking for a trailer wiring harness that fits your 2013 Hyundai Santa Fe. The contents of a factory tow package can differ greatly between vehicle manufacturers and even specific model vehicles from the same manufacturer. Because of this, the easiest and most accurate method for determining if you have the tow package is to simply contact or visit your local Hyundai dealer with your VIN. With this information, they will be able to tell you exactly what was installed at the factory on your model Santa Fe.

If you find that you do have the factory tow package, I recommend the Curt T-Connector Vehicle Wiring Harness # C56332. This will install by plugging into a built-in port located under the vehicle on the driver side.

If you don't have the tow package, you can use the Curt T-Connector Wiring Harness # C56184 instead. This will connect to factory ports located behind the driver and passenger side tail lights.

I have attached installation videos for both of these harnesses that you can use for reference.
