Expert Reply:

The installation of a trailer hitch receiver on a 2019 Honda Passport is as simple as it gets for any vehicle and does not require any removal of any panels or fascia at all. All that is required to install a trailer hitch is lifting the hitch into place and bolt it in. This process is true of both trailer hitch receivers that fit your '19 Passport, which are:

- Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # C13421
- Draw-Tite Trailer Hitch Receiver # 76290

Since these hitches are so similar in function and style, I simply recommend getting the hitch that is lighter on your wallet. To complete your towing set up the correct wiring harness for a 4-way to power your trailer's lights is the Curt T-Connector Vehicle Wiring Harness # C56291.

I have added links to the installation instructions of both hitches and the harness for you to check out.
