Expert Reply:
For your 2017 Nissan Murano I recommend Draw-Tite trailer hitch # 75952. It and the Curt trailer hitch # C13205 install the same but I would not say that one is more hidden than the other. I recommend taking a look at the installation videos for each hitch which I have linked for you which will provide a good comparison.
If you plan on doing some towing I recommend etrailer ball mount kit # 989900. It comes with 2 ball mounts; one with a 3/4 inch rise or 2 inch drop and one with a 2-3/4 inch rise or 4 inch drop. It also includes a 1-7/8 inch ball, 2 inch ball, hitch pin with clip, and a storage bag.
If the ball mount kit does not have the right rise or drop to tow the trailer level, use the link I have included that explains how to measure to choose a ball mount to tow the trailer level.
And for a trailer wiring harness you can use # 118660 to add a 4-Way flat connector to the rear of your Murano.
