Review on Kia 81230 1W030 Trunk Actuator Motor by Travis Carter

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Faster and cheaper than at the dealer!

The right part for our 2016 Kia Rio EX. This part number has an integrated drive motor and the trunk can also be opened from inside the vehicle using the release lever to the left of the driver's seat. I've read reviews where people spoke badly of the part and said it didn't have a drive motor. Because they ordered the wrong part. After checking this and verifying the correct part number at my local dealer, it was clear from my VIN that there were several different versions of this part. Some, like this one, are OEM and some may be aftermarket. I wanted and got a KIA OEM shutter. Here's what I have. Got it in two days via Prime versus a week at the dealer to get it and I would have had to drive 50 miles to get it. Great work Revan.
