What have you done / plan to do to your Telly?

[cheeks80]

Shhhhh. Don’t mention Subaru Outback with @DarkMossJustin around.

that’ll be neat to see what you come up with. What are your plans for use of it?

Having a rear shelf is extremely useful for organizing. Also it's easy to access items from 2nd row without bending over. You can put hooks under the shelf for hanging grocery bags....

I’ve got the 3.0 badge from the K5 Optima Store on the front and left the factory badge on the rear of mine, but I might just switch front and back for this. I like it

After two weeks of waiting for parts on special order, my Kia OEM hitch, 7-pin harness, and tow hitch cover are set to arrive at my place on Tuesday...

So that's my next project

Where did you get the 7 pin? How was the install.

Thanks!

7-pin is OEM part for 2021, but not for 2020 Telluride(s). The part number is S9F67-AC500 , but it won't work on a 2020 Telluride.

The install was relatively easy. I did encounter one issue with a 'frame rail weld nut' that required the use of a thread tap to clean up enough for the bolt to tighten down. But other than that issue it was pretty straight forward

I got my parts from Tasca Parts... my local dealer wanted $400 for the hitch by itself

Etsy. DarksideRacingArt. They are overlays, didn't want to mess with removing the emblems. Was able to get in a grey that matches the wolf grey pretty well.

I should probably also add, that I don't currently have a Brake Controller, so the 7-pin really isn't doing much right now. The 2021 models do have wiring that goes all the way into the cabin, under the dash... a brake controller can easily be hardwired in, but the controller itself isn't a part of the kit... effectively everything but the actual controller is included.

I'll be using a 7-pin converter until I have an actual need for electric brake controller . I just wanted to be partially prepared for the day when I need the 7-pin trailer connection.

I will be getting a 21', so hopefully I'm all set, but when I saw they didn't have a 7 pin on earlier threads I was disappointed, happy to hear this. Thanks!

Yeah, if a 2021 comes with the hitch from the factory, it should have the 7-pin on it already, there should also be a small harness in the glovebox, that has four wires and a molex connector , that can be used to connect a brake controller, as well as a manual/document that explains some of the hitch related information.

Great, I would like a break controller if it doesn't come with it. I really appreciate the advice. We have the tow package so it should be all good.

Looks nice.

I can see you rolling around down south, old ladies on the road seeing all your NY stuff just thinking in their head "bless his heart"

Oh the fun of being a yankee in the south
