Question:
For a trailer hitch for your 2017 Mazda 6 the Curt Hitch # C11356 is a confirmed fit and a great choice. The only tool you'll need to provide is a 3/4 inch wrench and you'll be set. I am not sure where you are, but typically we recommend finding a local mechanic with a solid reputation for hitch installs. I attached an install video for this down below for you to check out as well.

For a trailer hitch for your 2017 Mazda 6 the Draw Tite part # 24908 would be your best option as it does not require a stabilizer strap when carrying a non-supported load like a bike rack like the Curt hitch for your vehicle does. The only tool you'll need to provide is a 3/4 inch wrench and you'll be set. I am not sure where you are, but typically we recommend finding a local mechanic with a solid reputation for hitch installs.
