Today on this 2007 Hyundai Elantra we are going to install part number 24795 from Draw-Tite. This will also apply to Hidden Hitch part number 60872. First off I will go ahead and show you where the hitch mounts up onto the frame. Its going to be easy to install, it mounts up to the existing weld nuts on the side of the frame. :17
Looking at the drivers side frame rail, there are two existing holes. Since they are out in the elements you may want to take some time out to clean out the threads. Run it in a few threads then back it off. With older vehicles you may have to run a thread tap. We will go ahead and do that on all four bolt holes, just clean it out and get it ready. :34
Next we will go ahead and get these tabs lose in the trim. On this model here we are actually going to have cut off this trim tab right here, the supports are going to push out of the way when the hitch goes in place. Next go ahead and spray down the rubber hanger with some lubricant, and we will pull that off. We can go ahead and start raising the hitch into position. What we are going to do is actually put in the passenger side first, pull the tailpipe down, and work the hitch in and then go back over the the drivers side and put it up into position. 1:03

How much weigh can one of these trailer hitches carry? I have a 2007 Hyandai Elantra and want to buy a pop up trailer but Im not sure if I can tow it.

The hitches themselves are capable of pulling up to 2,000 pounds and bearing a 200 pound tongue weight. Keep in mind, the tow ratings of the Elantra may be less, so check the owners manual first before deciding whether or not to tow with it.
