Hitch Pin Hole Access on EcoHitch Receiver # 306-X7350 for 2018 Subaru Impreza

Published 11/16/2018

Question:

Hi. I am wanting to get the ecohitch for my 2018 Impreza but saw a customer review I think on an older version that said it was hard to reach the pin hole for his bike rack is this also true for this model?

The EcoHitch Hidden Trailer Hitch Receiver # 306-X7350 referenced in your question features a really nice hidden design where only the receiver is visible from behind the Impreza. The receiver will actually sit below the rear bumper and you won't have any trouble accessing the hitch pin hole and installing accessories like a bike rack or cargo carrier.

On previous model Imprezas the EcoHitch that was designed to fit actually placed the receiver behind a knockout panel, which provided a nice clean look but did cause some issues with accessing the hitch pin hole. It was almost too hidden.

You will not have this same problem with the EcoHitch # 306-X7350 on your 2018 Subaru Impreza.

I have also attached an image of this hitch installed on the vehicle that you can check out.
