Expert Reply:

To install a brake controller in your 2012 Kia Rondo you will need a Brake Controller Install Kit # ETBC7. The Hidden Hitch Pilot Brake Controller # 80550 will wire into the vehicle using this kit. Your Rondo needs to have a working 4-pole flat trailer connector in place; if it does not already have one you can use # 118431 from TowReady, which is a simple plug-and-play installation. This harness connects at your taillight assemblies.

I have linked the written installation instructions for the # ETBC7 as well as a video and article that both further illustrate the process of wiring in a brake controller.

The Pilot controller is a time-delay type, and while these are very cost effective the best braking performance comes from proportional controllers like the Prodigy P2 # 90885. The linked article on controllers will give you more information on both types. I suggest you review this before making a purchase decision.

Prices for all of our products are available on each item's page.
