Draw-Tite trailer hitch # 24794 will fit SE-R and non-SE-R models of the 2010 Nissan Sentra. I also checked with Draw-Tite and confirmed that it fits all models of the 2010 Nissan Sentra. I have linked the instructions and a video showing installation on a 2011 Model.

If you are going to be using the hitch to carry bikes then make sure that the bike rack you choose is rated for use with a Class I trailer hitch. Class I trailer hitches are also limited to carrying two bikes at most.

I have included a link to the compatible bike racks for you. Out of all of them I recommend the Swagman Trailhead, # S63360. This rack holds 2 bikes, can tilt down, features anti-sway cradles, and the rise in the shank provides better ground clearance. I have linked a video review of the rack for you.

If you like the platform style racks then I recommend the Thule Doubletrack, # TH92BJ. This is an excellent rack and will allow you to lock the bikes to the rack and the rack to the hitch.
