Description
Note: kit inclusions and feature retention here are identical to the AKHY11 listing — the key difference is this kit suits Tucson 2015-2016 vehicles with factory navigation, versus AKHY11's 2015-2018 range without factory navigation. Flagging in case this is intentional overlap rather than a data entry issue.
