I recommend using the etrailer Trailer Hitch Receiver # e38KR on your 2023 Kia Sportage. This receiver has a 2" x 2" opening and uses a hidden cross tube for a factory appearance.

The T-One Vehicle Wiring Harness # TK32VR uses factory style connectors which will connect directly in line of your tail lights. This removes the need to splice into the factory wiring. You will be able to run the 4-way outside your rear compartment and secure it permanently to the end of the receiver tube using a Mounting Bracket # C58001 if you prefer to not run it out of the rear hatch door when needed.
