Question:

Hi, 2009 my Mazda 3 Hatch is installed with a genuine Mazda towbar the sticker says: MAZDA 3 BL11-AC-TBH HATCH. However, I do not have the tongue or towball for it missing, I guess. Because the receiver is vertical and concealed, would this Curt vertical receiver work/fit as a replacement part?

The opening on your vertical receiver would have to accept a 2 inch square shank for # C45013 to fit. Check the other measurements, see picture, to make sure this adapter will fit properly.
