Where to Place Cutout Panel on Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver for 2023 Honda CR-V
Updated 05/08/2023 | Published 05/05/2023 >
Question:
Curt 13397 Install, Honda 2023 EX-L I watched video and reviews Instal instructions. Not clear on where to measure from to mark cut area on Fascia trim. I there a diagram showing reference points to measure from to locate cutout. Perhaps the center of the tow hook is the center of the cutout? Install directions are clear but cutout location is not clear. Thank you,

In regards to the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver part # c13397 which is a fit for a 2023 Honda CR-V, the trim diagram shows a cutout 3" wide x 1.375" tall, placed .625" to the right of the center rear fascia support tab. It sounds like you're just missing the part about placing the cutout .625" to the right of the center rear fascia support tab so you should be able to find the correct place now.
