Question:

Does this OEM-style hitch or the other similar model have a place to mount the 7-pole RV-style connector? Looking at the hitch options for 2019 Odyssey EX-L, I know I will need a 4 pin connector, 7 pole wiring kit, and a brake controller. But I am curious if the concealedinch hitches allow for the 7 pole connector to be installed in an accessible location? The OEM Honda hitch has a place to mount the 4pin connector. resubmitting my question under this product, I have accidentally asked this question under the wrong hitch page.

You can mount a 7-way under your 2019 Honda Odyssey with Draw Tite hitch # 76170 but you'd need to mount the 7-way bracket to the the lower rear bumper fascia. You'll want to start with a 4-way like part # 118753 and then convert to a 7-way with part # ETBC7 so you can install a brake controller like the Brake EVN # TK63VR.

The # ETBC7 comes with self tapping screws that you will run through the bracket into the lower fascia of your vehicle.
