Trimming Diagram for Fascia and Underbody for Curt Hitch Install on 2023 Honda CR-V Touring Hybrid
Published 07/28/2023 >
Question:
What needs to be cut on the fascia and underbody on a hybrid Touring 2023 CR-V? Is there a trim diagram?

Expert Reply:
We do have a diagram which shows where you need to trim when installing the Curt # C13397. I have attached a picture below which shows the measurements from the Curt instructions. We have installed this hitch with and without cutting the underbody panel so that isn't entirely necessary. However, trimming the fascia is required so the receiver will fit.
I have attached a few installation videos below along with the full written instructions for your reference.
