I have attached a link to the installation instructions for the Curt Class I Trailer Hitch, # C11370 and links to trailer hitch installation tips that will help, but we have not had a chance to install this hitch on a Nissan Sentra yet because we rely on local customers and rental companies for our vehicle supply.

The installation instructions that are linked include step by step directions. The most difficult part of this installation will be installing the 7/16 inch carriage bolts in the bumper beam using the fishwire. This is explained in the instructions, but I have also attached a video that shows how to effectively use the fishwire technique. The fishwire and all other hardware is included with this hitch, so the only additional parts that you will need for the installation are your tools. You will want an 11/16" socket, a 3/4" socket and a torque wrench like # ALL944001.
