I drive a 2007 Honda Fit Sport. Are there any recommendations for what type of anti-seize can be used on the installation bolts for the #24776 hitch?

For Draw-Tite trailer hitch # 24776 for your 2007 Honda Fit Sport there isn't a specific recommendation for anti-seize products for the installation hardware. Loctite # LT37616 would work fine. But if you are talking about thread locker then there is just one thing to consider: how difficult do you want it to be to remove the hardware?

If you use blue Loctite # LT37643 then the hardware can still be removed using hand tools. But if you use red Loctite # LT37420 then power tools would have to be used to remove the hardware.
