This fully welded trailer hitch receiver bolts onto your vehicle's frame with no welding required. Matte black, powder coated steel is durable and corrosion resistant and creates a rugged look.
Features:
Specs:
The sturdy steel construction is protected with a matte black finish for added durability. This unique powder coating gives etrailer hitches a carbide-like appearance and a rugged look that sets them apart from traditional glossy hitches. In addition to being rust and corrosion resistant, the tough matte coating hides dirt, scuffs, and dings better than a glossy finish.

Installed etrailer Matt finish hitch in 2013 Honda odyssey paired with curt light kit wire harness.
Worked flawlessly. Quick & easy.
Amazing installation instructions by etrailer team.
Customer service follows up quick shipping is amazing
Great company Great staff attached pictures to show floor clearance & install.
Installed easy enough on my 2020 odyssey. My van is used and apparently had a hitch already installed and removed. So I didn’t end up trimming the side splash panels as they were gone. Also two frame weld nuts were missing, so I had fun time fishing two of the hex bolts in there and tightening with some nuts from the hardware store.
Easy bolt-on to my 2020 Honda Odyssey. Hitch has performed well, hasn’t budged even after taking four bikes on a rack from Ohio to Georgia and back.
We have had this on our vehicle for close to a year now. It is low profile, which is extremely important with how low the Odyssey sits. It has not affected our ride height at all. We used it for a few camping trips. It holds a good deal of weight from our cargo rack. Also, the customer service is phenomenal, which makes a big difference for us. This is the second time we have purchased hitch kits through etrailer.We are returning customers because of the price and customer service. Will probably buy another hitch/hitch receiver from them for whatever vehicle we purchase next. Highly recommend.
The hitch is well made and solid. I recommend watching the how-to videos to prepare for the install.
Everything showed up in good shape and all hardware was included. No issues with installation. Between the included paper instructions and the how to videos, I installed it in less than 1 hour. I’d recommend having someone help you lift/hold the receiver when installing, but a couple jack stands will work in a pinch.
Everything worked great for a 2025 Odyssey. Was able to bolt the exhaust side without removing muffler mount. On the other side, the panel that comes on the van from factory comes out easily and has a trim out panel to accommodate this hitch. Cut that off the panel and it allows reinstallation of the guard/panel after the hitch is bolted on. The box that the hitch shipped in was just about the perfect height to support the hitch and slide it into place. Put the hitch on the empty box to help with the install. Worked great!

That's great to know what it's a solid fit on the new '25 Honda Odyssey's :) Thanks for sharing your experience with the install. What you will you be using the hitch to carry?
Impressed with the quality of the hitch,instructions made diy installation moderate for a first timer,very happy with the finished product
Super easy to install. Did not have to jack the vehicle up. Instructions were clear and accurate. Although I did unhook the exhaust from the rubber hanger to give me more room to access and tighten the bolts. From start to finish, about an hour to install.
Clean finish, does not protrude beyond the bumper.

It looks great, Tim! Thanks for sending along the photos - its nice to see the finished product :)
Aligned perfectly. Well thought out instructions. Quality material. Inexpensive price for 5 star product.
Excellent! Very easy to install as the vehicle was brand new and the OEM provided bolt lugs were clean. Used the provide instructions as well as YouTube videos. Have installed a couple of these so had some familiarity for the process.

Great, looks great! Have not used it, however ready when needed.
A bit difficult for one person, but I was able to get the trailer hitch installed. The hitch looks very nice. Thanks etrailer !
Awesome hitch, went on in 30 minutes with just some ramps. Great product.
Hitch receiver came very quickly. The bolts were taped to the hutch to keep from getting lost in shipping. The installation video was perfect and made installation super easy.

I have a cousin named Cayla. She's pretty cool. If she ever got a hitch I'd assume she'd be towing a kayak trailer because she's pretty outdoorsy. What will you be using your hitch for? :)

Went on easy just as shown in the videos. Second time buying an etrailer hitch. Great products and great information on the website.
The ordering process is so absolutely easy with trailer and they carry just about anything you could ever need when it comes to pulling a trailer. And they provide easy to follow step by step install instructions if you need them. Pricing is very competitive and you get free shipping and guarantees
Easy install for my husband who is decently handy. Clear instructions and just a little need to trim the plastic as seen in the other videos on etrailer.
Easy ordering, price right, tracking emails helpful , arrived on time, all parts accounted for, installation easy using video provided online…this is my 3rd hitch from these folks with a smooth experience each time.
It’s a beautiful trailer hitch and a wonderful experience ordering from etrailer!! I highly recommend and actually look forward to ordering and putting another one on in the future! Thank you!!
Great product, works very nice and easy to install

I'm glad that I came across the etrailer website and purchased the trailer hitch for my Honday Odyssey 2019. The hitch is attached to the car snuggly and looks neat on the car. It looks very sturdy but weighs only 36 lbs. A couple of notes for future buyers:
* As mentioned by some other reviews, it does seem to be the case that the sensor for the hands-free trunk opening (i.e., by swinging your leg underneath the back of the car) is blocked by this hitch. I personally don't use that feature a lot so I'm not bothered by this.
* Although I see myself as a pretty hands-on person, the installation is clearly beyond me. I cannot even take down the panel due to the extremely tight hex screw on the car. I also cannot imagine myself lifting up this hitch and fit it to the car while lying down on the ground, with just < 1 foot of clearance. I had it installed in a car body shop with a reasonable price.
This hitch receiver was installed on a 2025 Honda Odyssey in the driveway. The installation videos on etrailer really helped prepare for the installation and ensure that the right tools were available for the job. Seems like a good product, it was delivered well-packaged and with all the necessary mounting hardware. Thanks etrailer!
Fast shipping, easy instalation, good q uality
Quality product, super easy to install! Looks great installed!
