Question:

Hi, Im interested in purchasing Item # 306-X7178 but wanted to watch an install video to gauge the complexity of the installation before ordering. I have a 2011 Toyota Prius. I couldnt seem to find a video for this particular product. Do you happen to have one? Thanks!

In regards to installing a trailer hitch like the EcoHitch Hidden Trailer Hitch Receiver part # 306-X7178 on a 2011 Toyota Prius, the process is not hard at all. It installs into pre-drilled holes in the bottom of the frame, but you will have to drill into the exhaust heat shield.

I don't have any videos specifically on the EcoHitch Hidden Trailer Hitch Receiver but you can use the one attached on a similar hitch for guidance as the process is similar.
