Just thought I'd share some pics - I am in Korea right now, saw this Palisade parked. I don't have a Palisade, but am tracking it closely. Noticed this one had a running board (these available in North America?) This one also had the three led headlights and the cutout for the DRL. Also, notice the mirrors are folded? Hyundai obviously made folding mirrors for the Palisade, but didn't bring it to North America.
Have seen plenty on Palisades around, but have not seen a single Telluride. Must be an import thing, or maybe Kia isn't going to sell the Telluride in Korea?
That cutout DRL is because of the law in Korea. The korean version also has the power seat button on the side of the passenger seat near where the USB is. The running board is likely an aftermaket install.

What Korean law requires the DRL cutout? I saw a Korean video where a Hyundai exec stated the 3-LED headlight and cutout were a Korea market exclusive, for the home market.
Several video actually states it is required by the law in Korea. No DRl shall be apart farther than 75mm. They got away with it by putting the cutout.
Quick google shows several articles. Run google translate.

Thanks, really interesting to hear. I've never looked into it, but have spent a lot of time in Korea - my uneducated impression is Koreans don't care too much for any type of lighting regulations, generally following US or EU standards for lighting. So I'm surprised to hear about a Korean regulation like this.
I don't think the local police enforce much of anything though, as some of the Semi's on the highways look like disco's with the amount of extra lighting they tack on (unless this is allowed, maybe so).
I have seen those running boards for sale online and fairly inexpensively. If you Google you should find them no problem. I am looking for the wingstep retractable running boards in the US but they are impossible to find right now.
I have always changed my new vehicles oil at 1000 mile to get the break in oil out and any metal shavings out. My wife was at the local dealer yesterday getting the windows tinted and asked the service adviser how much it would cost to change the oil at 1000 miles instead of waiting for the...
I have to choose between black, steel graphite, lagoon silver, rainforest or burgundy....black and burgundy are out. I don't really want silver or dark grey but can't find anything on the lot in this rainforest colour. Looks interesting on the brochure.
Anybody driving this colour, and how do...
I have been watching a lot of dash cam videos on You Tube. I bought one and stuck it on my windshield. Some time back I got into a fender bender and it absolutely wasn't my fault but couldn't prove it. So anyone have success finding a real good cam for front and rear. The rear view cam is...
I have had my Palisade Limited AWD for about 6 weeks and love it. There are two things that I haven’t quite figured out yet and yes, I have looked through the manual and searched around here but haven’t found the answers, but I think I remember seeing something about it so I acknowledge that I...
My local dealerships does not have a Palisade that I want in stock so I'm driving 3 hours out to buy one. I'm concerned if there is an issue with the car and it needs repair. Will a local dealership take a look at it?
