  • Will the Draw-Tite Hitch # 24755 fit a 2006 Acura TL with a A-Spec Lip Kit
  • I did some checking and it looks like the Draw-Tite Sportframe Trailer Hitch # 24755 that you referenced will fit on a 2006 Acura TL with a factory A-Spec lip kit. I also found out that Acura does not recommend you tow at all with this vehicle and I could only safely recommend you carry a bike rack. I attached an installation video for this product for you to check out also.

  • Is A Converter Required For A Vehicle Wiring Harness On A 2009 Acura TL?
  • On your 2009 Acura TL a converter is indeed required so it appears the Technician was not truthful. A converter is required when vehicles have separate wiring meaning the brake light and turn signals are sent along different wires. Since trailers use combined wiring in which the brake light and turn signal are the same wire a converter is needed. For your vehicle I recommend the Hopkins # 46255 which plugs into the existing connectors on your vehicle and uses its own power wire that...

  • Snow Chain Recommendation for 2007 Acura TL
  • The Glacier Cable Snow Tire Chains # PW1038 you referenced will work for your 2007 Acura TL and are easy to install and comply with all Department of Transportation use. The typical tire size for your car is 235/45-17. If your tire size is different, I can recommend another set of chains for you or you can check out our tire chain fitguide to see what tire chain works for the size of tire your vehicle has. I have posted a link to that page. I have also included a link to a video showing...

  • Fit of Yakima FullBack 3 # Y02633 on 2006 Acura TL
  • According to Yakima, the FullBack 3 will indeed fit your 2006 Acura TL. To carry womens bikes or bikes with sharply angled top tubes or step-through frames, using a frame adapter like part # Y02531 is recommended. The adapter spans the distance between the seat post and the handle bar gooseneck, and provides a level attachment point to the bike rack so the bike has greater ground clearance and is not carried at an angle.

  • Mounting Hull-A-Port J-Style Kayak Carrier to Thule WingBar Evo Roof Rack on 2006 Acura TL
  • The Thule Hull-A-Port J-Style Rooftop Kayak Carrier, # TH834, can be used with the Thule WingBar Evo Roof Rack System, # TH711400, # TH480R, # THKIT1544, on your 2006 Acura TL but you will also need Adapter Kit, # THXADAPT11. The WingBars are also available in black using part # TH711420. This kayak carrier accomodates kayaks up to 75 pounds and 36 inches wide but I do recommend checking your Acura's owner's manual for the weight capacity of the TL's roof.

  • Will the Thule OutWay Trunk Mount Bike Rack Fit a 2010 Acura TL
  • The ThulevOutWay # TH45JV, will fit your 2010 Acura TL. We actually list several different bike racks that will fit your TL. I have included a link to all of the options for you. My first choice would be the OutWay that you have selected. It is the easiest and fastest bike rack to install and remove because it uses retractable cables instead of straps. If you will be carrying women's, children's, or alternative frame bikes, I recommend using the bike adapter bar # TH982XT, to carry the...

  • Highest Capacity Roof Rack Available For 2003 Acura TL
  • The only roof rack available for the 2003 Acura TL that provides 125 lbs of weight capacity is the SeaSucker brand. The other brands offer 25-35 lbs less capacity. I was not able to find the roof capacity of the Acura TL in the owner's manual. It says to contact the dealership for more information on how much weight the roof can handle. It is a good idea to find this information out before carrying kayaks. I recommend SeaSucker Monkey Bars part # 298-SX6000B because this setup gives you...

  • Recommend Snow Tire Chains for 2008 Acura TL Facotry Wheel and Tire Size P235/45R17
  • I would recommend the Glacier Cable Snow Tire Chains, part # PW1038, which are SAE Class S tire chains. You will also want to use Glacier Rubber Adjusters for Class S Snow Chains, part # PW100 as tensioners for part # PW1038. You will want to mount the snow chains on the powered drive wheels of your vehicle, on your TL you will mount the snow chains on the 2 front wheels. I have linked 2 FAQ Articles on snow chains, one of which outlines the snow chain laws for each state. I have also...

  • Does K-Source Replacement Drivers Side Mirror Fit 2007 Acura TL
  • I'm certainly sorry to hear that someone kicked off the driver's side mirror of your 2007 Acura TL, though I can verify for you that the mirror you asked about is a fit for your car, and it is indeed for the driver's side: - K-Source Replacement Side Mirror # KS63030H If you also wanted the passenger's side that part is # KS63029H.

  • Will the Thule OutWay 2 Bike Trunk Mount Bike Rack Fit a 2011 Acura TL
  • I checked with Thule and the OutWay, # TH45JV, is listed as a fit for all models of the 2011 Acura TL. A spoiler is only going to be a problem if it interferes with the rack installation. No part of the rack, including the retractable cables on the rack, are allowed to touch (put any weight on) the spoiler. If any part of the rack does then you cannot use it. Thule does not test the racks on models with spoilers so they cannot guarantee fit. I have included a link to a video review of...

  • Recommendation for a Trailer Hitch Mount Bike Rack for a Class I Trailer Hitch on a 2010 Acura TL
  • You are correct about the hitch sizes for the 2010 Acura TL. All of the available trailer hitches for your car will be 1-1/4 inch, Class I hitches. You will need to use a bike rack that is designed to work with a Class I trailer hitch. Your Thule 4 bike rack that is designed to fit a 2 inch trailer hitch will not fit a Class I, 1-1/4 inch trailer hitch. Since all of the available trailer hitches for your Acura are Class I hitches, you will be limited to carrying only 2 bikes. There are...

  • Hitch Pin Hole to Outer Most Edge of Bumper Measurement on Trailer Hitch for 2003 Acura TL
  • We have not had the opportunity to install the Curt Hitch # C11290 on a 2003 Acura TL, so this measure is not available. If you could measure from the hitch pin hole to the outer most part of the bumper with the hitch that you currently have, I can see if we have a rack that would fold using your current hitch. Also knowing which bike rack you have now would be helpful.

If the rear view mirror of your Acura TL is between 2-1/8 and 2-7/8 inches tall and no thicker than 3/4 of an inch, the K-Source Mirror, part # KSRM012, will fit. Please refer to the attached photo which illustrates the back side of the mirror and its spring-loaded mounting clamps. These clamps expand from 2-1/8 to 2-7/8 inches. This mirror uses a...

  • Can Longbikes Eliminator G2 Recumbent Bike Fit On Thule Raceway Pro On 2007 Acura TL
  • The Thule OutWay # TH45JV would not work well with your Longbikes Eliminator G2. It would be difficult mounting the bike on the arms of the carrier and the carrier has a weight capacity of 33-lbs per bike. I was unable to find the weight of your bike in my research. The design of the bike and possibly the weight would be very stressful on the back of the vehicle. I recommend installing a trailer hitch like part # 24755 on your Acura and then using a hitch-mounted bike carrier designed...
