Should EcoHitch Bumper Core Straps Be Installed on 2013 Toyota Sienna
Updated 09/14/2024 | Published 09/02/2024 >
Question:
Do I need to put the Bumper Core Straps on? The ecohitch video installs them, but your video, which demonstrates bending the tabs down to get the hitch installed, doesnt mention them either way.

Hi Phil; the # 306-X7255 bumper core straps should be installed on your 2013 Sienna. Step 7 in the instructions outlines the details of this process which can be seen below.

OK, that's fine. You might want to update your in-house vid to demonstrate doing that using the method of leaving the bumper fascia in place. TBH, I'm not sure how I'm going to manage that without pulling the bumper cover off ... There's just so little room in there. Other than that, it's a great fit.
