The T-One Vehicle Wiring Harness with 4-Pole Flat Trailer Connector part # 118698 is what I recommend for a 2018 Kia Sportage. In comparison to the Curt T-Connector Vehicle Wiring Harness with 4-Pole Flat Trailer Connector part # C56321, the T-One has a different converter box which is easier to secure and more reliable (better potting). It also has an integrated dust cap as opposed to separate on the T-Connector which can easily be lost.
