Is Drilling Required For the Installation of the Curt Wiring Harness on a Honda CR-V
Updated 03/20/2013 | Published 03/18/2013
Question:
Hello. I just received my Curt 55106 and have not yet installed it. Ive seen videos and read installation instructions, but I see no reference to drilling any holes. Do I have to drill for the ground wire or not? Your order and delivery service rocks! Thanks.

Expert Reply:
The Curt Wiring Harness # C55106 you referenced is intended for a 2007-2011 Honda CR-V. I have provided a link to the installation instructions for this particular harness.
The wiring harness will not require any drilling as the connector is installed in the inner trim area of your vehicles rear cargo area, however you will need to shoot in a self-tapping screw during the installation. Once you have completed the installation, you will want to test the connection with a test light or a properly-wired trailer.
If you have a 2007-2011 Honda CR-V, drilling is not required for that vehicle or wiring harness either other than the self-tapping screw.
I've linked a video of the install on a 2010 CR-V for you.
