Question:
I watched your YouTube video on trailer hitch installation for a 2020 Toyota Sienna. The gentleman mentioned instructions for installation including the cut out area of the plastic underpanel to accommodate the hitch. Do you have/provide such instructions?

Hey Greg. Instructions for a etrailer Hitch like item # e98837, that fits your 2020 Toyota Sienna are included with the hitch. I have also linked them below along with another installation video. This may have been the one you saw on Youtube but if not you have another one. I've included a screenshot from the instructions that shows what cut needs to be made.
The etrailer Hitch item # e98837 has been confirmed to fit all models of the 2020 Toyota Sienna. This is a custom fit class III hitch with a 2" receiver, that has a 3,500 lbs towing capacity, and a maximum tongue weight of 350 lbs.
What do you plan on using a hitch for?

Thank you very much, Jerred. Using the diagram you sent me I was able to cut out the appropriate sections of the underbody trim so that the hitch could be installed. I used one of the facilities in my area which etrailer suggested for the installation and I was happy with the result. Thank you again.
