Question:
What size of the fish out wire do I need for the supplied bots. I am reinstalling the hitch and I lost the fish out wire. The hitch is for 2022 Subaru forester. Thanks

Hey Bert, I had to do some research but it looks like the EcoHitch Hidden Trailer Hitch Receiver # 306-X7391 uses M12 bolts meaning the only way you'd be able to get the fish wire you need is through a new hardware kit # RHK. We have fish wire kits for a bunch of standard sized bolts, but nothing on the metric side.
If there is anything else I can do for you, please feel free to drop a comment and let me know!

Hi Bryce, Thanks for the reply. I did not get the whole kit since I did not need everything. I only needed the fish out wire which I bought from the website. I wasn’t sure the size but it is half inch. but now the problem is, how do I get this out?
