  • What 2-Inch Hitch Receivers for 2008 Honda Element SC for Use with Cargo Basket and Small Trailer
  • Since you intend to use a cargo basket and/or tow a small trailer with your 2008 Honda Element SC I suggest a Class III hitch receiver that will offer higher tongue weight capacity. For your Element SC we can offer two Class III 2-inch receivers, one from HiddenHitch and one from DrawTite. Both offer 350-lb tongue weight and 3500-lb gross towing weight ratings. Both install without welding or drilling, but both do require trimming of the rear bumper fascia. We do not have any 2-inch hitch rece

  • Trailer Hitch and Bike Rack Recommendations for a 2008 Honda Element SC
  • You really cannot go wrong with either the Hidden Hitch, # 87506 of the Draw-Tite hitch, # 75659, for the 2008 Honda Element SC. The Hidden Hitch is more popular, so I would go with it. As you can see in the pictures on the product page and in the customer reviews, there is not much distance between the receiver face and the end of the bumper, so any bike rack you choose will clear the bumper. Between the Yakima HighLite, # Y02437, and the Thule Helium, # TH971XT, I give a slight edge to the

They are not a hard rubber or plastic material. The small, anti-skid spikes on the back of the floor mat will also keep the mats from slipping if your Element has the carpet flooring.

  • Parts Needed to Flat Tow a 2008 Honda Element SC
  • I went on the Remco site and looked up a 2008 Honda Element. I did not see the SC model excluded anywhere in the application charts. It stated that all models, manual or automatic, 2 wheel drive or 4 wheel drive, can be flat towed. You will want to look in the owners manual for the vehicle on how it should be towed. The only Blue Ox base plates for the vehicle do exclude the SC model, but the Roadmaster Base plates, # 1541-3 will work with all models. These are XL style base plates which are

  • Connector Location for the Converter Box on a 2008 Honda Element for T-One Trailer Harness 118465
  • You may have found the wrong connector. It may be difficult to see, but under the access panel, look all the way to the left driver side wall. You will see a gray connector there, but again it may be difficult to see. We also have a video of a 2007 Element that makes note of the location, but even with our video, it is difficult to see because of the location of the connector. I have added a link to the video below.

This connection is essentially a loop circuit that powers the vehicles tow package wiring to the rear spare tire compartment. The converter that is attached to the under dash 10 pin connector is there to protect the vehicles wiring and convert the 5-wire system on the Honda to a 4-wire trailer lighting system. Once you have the part connected under the dash y
