To install the Draw-Tite Max-Frame Trailer Hitch Receiver # DT55MR on your 2021 Toyota Sienna you will need to trim a portion of the underbody panel on the drivers side of the Sienna. I have included a picture of the area that will be trimmed out from the panel. Draw-Tite suggests doing this with a utility knife to cut along the panel. You could also use a coping saw or body panel saw as well.
I have also linked a copy of the instructions below that way you can see the entire installation process.
