Trailer Hitch and Wiring Harness for 2016 Honda CR-V
Question:
I have a 2016 Honda CRV. Can you install a trailer hitch and wiring harness on this vehicle. I have a 2 inch bike rack that I want to use the hitch for. Which hitch do you recommend that will be the most hidden under the CRV? And finally, how much to install hitch and wiring harness? Thanks.

Expert Reply:
We do indeed offer trailer hitches and trailer wiring harness options for your 2016 Honda CR-V. Since the hitches we offer for your CR-V are pretty equivalent as far as quality goes, you can go for the least expensive Draw-Tite # 75742 and not feel like you've sacrificed anything.
As far as visibility goes, as you can see in the photo I've provided, both hitches are pretty much equally visible from the rear of the car.
For a trailer wiring harness, I'd recommend the # 118561 from Tow Ready. You'll also need a ball mount, part # 2753 and a 1-7/8 inch trailer ball, part # 19260 or a 2 inch ball, part # 63845.
For an install appointment and pricing, you'd need to call our Customer Service folks at 800-298-8924.
I've linked you to install videos for the hitch and the trailer wiring harness.
