Question:

I’m planning on installing a C13002 hitch on our new to us 2015 SRX. Will the OEM style Hitch Cover fit over your hitch? How come you don’t offer an OEM style cover?

Expert Reply:

The receiver tube portion of the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver part # C13002 will extend out past the rear bumper fascia on the 2015 Cadillac SRX so the center knockout panel cannot be reused unless modified. This will be the case for all aftermarket trailer hitches available for your vehicle. However, if you trim the center knockout panel around the receiver tube opening and install a hitch cover like part # I-728 you can achieve a very clean look which you can see in the attached photo.

Unfortunately, we do not carry the center knockout panel. You would need to contact the dealer for this.
