What’s the point of using a hitch cover?

A hitch cover keeps dirt, water, and debris out of your hitch receiver, so you don’t have to worry about rust or gunk building up. Plus, they come in all kinds of fun designs—sports teams, logos, even light-up ones—so you can add a little personality to your ride.

How do I figure out which hitch cover will fit my vehicle?

Just measure the opening of your hitch receiver. Most are either 1-1/4 inches or 2 inches. Once you know that, you can pick a cover that matches. If you’re not sure how to measure, check out this FAQ for a full guide.

Do I really need a pin or lock for my hitch cover?

Yep, it’s a good idea! A pin and clip will keep it secure, but if you want to make sure no one can walk off with it, a locking hitch pin is the way to go. It’s a small investment to save yourself from losing a cool cover.

Can I get a hitch cover with a built-in brake light?

Some hitch lights double as brake lights, so when you hit the brakes, the light comes on. It’s a neat little safety feature, and it looks cool too. Just make sure it’s compatible with your vehicle’s wiring before you buy.

Is installing a hitch cover hard?

Not at all! You just slide it into your hitch receiver, line up the pin holes, and secure it with a pin or lock. Some even have built-in clips, so you don’t need extra hardware. It’s quick and easy—should only take a minute or two!
