First, thanks for the kind words, that is really nice of you, and I have some good news because since your 2019 Hyundai Kona has flush-mounted rails, you can indeed add a roof rack which will allow you to mount a Yakima SkyRise rooftop tent.

So first things first, let's go ahead and start with the roof rack, and the best option is a rack from Thule, as it gives you the quietest, easiest-to-use, most durable roof rack for your Kona. The parts that fit your '19 Kona that make up the roof rack are the following:

- Thule WingBar Evo Crossbars # TH711220

- Evo Flush Rail Feet for Thule Crossbars # TH710601

- Fit Kit # TH67JV

The only other thing you may want to add are locks in order to lock the rack to your Kona, which you can get with the Thule One-Key System Lock Cylinders # TH450400.

With this rack on your vehicle, you can then mount a rooftop tent directly to it:

- Yakima SkyRise HD Tent for Roof Rack Crossbars # Y07436

The SkyRise HD is an awesome tent that has a nice, comfy 2-1/2" thick foam mattress, windows and skylights that you can either keep on or unzip if the weather is perfect, and even pockets inside the tent so you can easily store some personal items.

And if you want some privacy, you can add an annex underneath the tent with the Annex for 2 Person Yakima SkyRise Tents # Y07421.
