Question:
I am picking up a 2018 Honda Odyssey today and plan to install a Draw Tite 2inch tow bar. Can you recommend the correct model and lighting harness for the 2018? Also, will a folding cargo rack allow the rear door to open without hitting it? Thanks.

Expert Reply:
The wiring kit that I recommend and is a confirmed fit for your 2018 Honda Odyssey is the Vehicle Wiring Harness Kit with 4 Pole Trailer Connector # C59496. This will need to be spliced into the wiring that is behind your tail light housing and then a 12V power wire run up to your battery.
If you do not already have a cargo carrier then I recommend going with the 20x59 Curt Cargo Carrier for 2" Hitches # C18151 which is one of our most popular cargo carriers. It will fit in a 2 inch trailer hitch receiver and has a weight capacity of 500 lbs. Keep in mind that if your receiver has a Tongue Weight (TW) under 500 lbs then you will be limited by that instead. The carrier comes with a hitch pin and clip but if you wanted to add some security I recommend using the Let's Go Aero Anti-Rattle Trailer Hitch Receiver Lock # 63232.
