For a cost efficient way to put a bike on your roof, I recommend starting with the Malone SteelTop Roof Rack - Square Crossbars - Steel - 50" Long # MPG201 and then adding the Swagman Fork Down # S64710. These are good cost conscious products to get you safely down the road. view full answer...
We offer one trailer hitch for your 2012 Sport Wagon.
The trailer hitch that will work with your TSX is the Curt Trailer Hitch, part # C11085. This is a Class l hitch and it has a 1-1/4 inch receiver opening.
The ball mount I recommend is the Curt Drawbar, part # C45521. For the hitch ball, if you need a 1-7/8 inch hitch ball I recommend part # A-80 and for a 2 inch hitch ball I recommend part # A-82.
For trailer wiring, I recommend the TSX ZCI Circuit Protected Vehicle Wiring Harness,... view full answer...
In the answer you are referring to it states that Curt trailer hitch # C11085 fits the TSX Sport Wagon, not the sedan. It goes on to say that the correct hitch for the sedan is # C11496. This is all still true for your 2012.
Since you have a 2012 sedan you will need hitch # C11496. There isn't any visible fascia that needs to be trimmed but underneath the vehicle there is a heat shield and trim panel that would have to be modified or trimmed for hitch installation.

The Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver - Custom Fit - Class I - 1-1/4" # C11455 which is a fit for a 2006 Acura TSX only has a class I rating so the maximum number of bikes that can be carried is two. I am aware the weight capacity of the hitch will likely allow for more than two bikes, but the issue is actually with leverage rather than raw weight capacity. For a bike rack, the Curt 2 Bike Platform Rack part # C18085 is a great option. view full answer...
All of the trailer hitches for your 2010 Acura TSX are Class I hitches with 1-1/4 inch receivers so in order to use an accessory, such as a bike rack, that has a 2 inch shank you would have to use an adapter, # HTAD. But the use of an adapter reduces the tongue weight capacity of the hitch by 50 percent.
So for example if you used Curt hitch # C11496, which has a tongue weight capacity is 200 pounds. But when using the adapter the capacity will be reduced to 100 pounds. As long as the... view full answer...
For your 2005 Acura TSX the only wiring kit I can safely recommend for you is the part # 46255 as the part # 118302 has not been confirmed to fit your vehicle. view full answer...
For your Class I trailer hitch receiver # C11455, you will need to use a hitch expander that is compatible with a Class I hitch. I recommend the Brophy Hitch Adapter 1-1/4" to 2" Trailer Hitch Receiver # HTAD which will allow you to use a bike rack made for a 2 inch receiver. You will need to account for the load capacity as using an adapter will limit the tongue weight rating of your trailer hitch by 50%. That means your bike rack, adapter, and loaded bike(s) combined weight needs to... view full answer...
I checked with Thule and the OutWay 2 Trunk Rack part # TH45JV that you referenced has been confirmed to fit your 2011 Acura TSX Sportwagon. So as long as the spoiler on the vehicle is a factory spoiler the rack would work very well.
What makes this rack far superior to the others is the attachment system. It uses only 2 retractable coated steel cables to attach to the vehicle rather than 6 nylon straps like other racks. This makes installation quick and easy and the cables also last longer.

The trailer hitches that are designed for the 2012 Acura TSX are all Class I hitches. This is most likely because this vehicle is not rated to support the heavier loads that a Class II or greater hitch is capable of towing.
Since you have a Sport Wagon model, the only confirmed trailer hitch to fit your vehicle is the Curt Class I Round Tube Receiver Hitch # C11085. This has a 200 pound tongue weight and 2,000 pound towing weight capacity. This is a custom fit hitch for your vehicle, so... view full answer...
For your 2012 Acura TSX Wagon, I recommend looking at the Thule Doubletrack Pro XT Bike Rack # TH92BJ. This is ia great platform-style bike rack that is compatible with both 1-1/4 inch and 2 inch trailer hitch receivers and will hold up to 2 bikes at 35 pounds each.
An important feature on this rack with regards to your city bikes is the sliding, reinforced wheel trays. These can be adjusted and moved to accommodate bikes of different lengths and eliminate bike-to-bike contact. This means... view full answer...
You are correct about the trailer hitch and hitch mount bike racks for your 2012 Acura TSX. Class I trailer hitches available for your TSX can only hold 2 bikes. To carry 3 bikes I recommend a trunk mount rack, see link. A trunk mount rack is a more economical solution and they fit many vehicles (but not all).
Out of all of the 3 bike options my favorite is the Thule OutWay # TH56BV. I own this rack and I have to say that it is the easiest to use trunk mount rack that I have come across.... view full answer...
For the Sport Wagon versions of the 2012 Acura TSX we gave the no-splice trailer wiring harness # 1192502KIT by Tekonsha. I attached an install video for you to check out as well. view full answer...
We do offer front and rear floor mats that are designed to fit your 2007 Acura TSX.
If you are looking for Black floor mats I recommend part # WTW58. For the rear the black floor mats you would need are part # WTW50.
For Gray front mats you need part # WTW58GR, and for the rear part # WTW50GR. For Tan colored mats the front is part # WTW58TN and the rear is part # WTW50TN. view full answer...
For you the Thule OutWay Trunk Mounted Bike Carrier # TH56BV would be the best choice for your 2011 Acura TSX Wagon. This rack is one of the best racks we offer because it uses retractable, rubber coated steel cables that can be locked to your vehicle instead of straps like most trunk mounted carriers.
If you plan on carrying women's or alternative framed bikes you may also be interested in purchasing a Thule Bike Adapter # TH982XT. I attached a review video for this product for you to... view full answer...
I do recommend a trailer hitch mount bike rack for your 2013 Acura TSX Sport Wagon. If you do not already have a trailer hitch, the most popular option is # C11496. I have included a link to a video showing a typical installation and a link to the instructions for you.
For a Class I compatible bike rack that will tilt down and allow better access to the rear of the vehicle I recommend the Thule T2 Pro XTR # TH23JV. This is a platform style bike rack that fits 1-1/4 inch hitches (Class... view full answer...
When we installed Hidden Hitch trailer hitch # 60831 on a 2006 Acura TSX it measured 4 inches from the center of the hitch pin hole to clear the rear bumper. The Curt adapter # D-192 will not fit because it only fits in 2 inch trailer hitch receiver openings. And the MaxxTow MT70355 will not fit since it was for Class II hitches.
That leaves Brophy adapter # HT5R. It will fit a Class I hitch but the issue with it is that the back of the 2 inch receiver does not come out far enough to clear... view full answer...
The Curt trailer hitch # C11496 is a fit for the 2011 Acura TSX, TL, and Honda Accord. I have included a link to the installation instructions and a link to a video showing a typical isntallation of the hitch.
If you are planning on doing some towing the correct ball mount is # 3593. For a 1-7/8 inch ball use # 19256 and for a 2 inch ball use # 19258. For trailer wiring use # 118420. I have included a link to a video and a link to the instructions for the wiring as well. view full answer...
Trunk bike carriers are available in 2- or 3-bike sizes. A 2-bike carrier will give you some extra capacity if you ever need it for a second bike, but even if you are transporting only one bicycle the extra space on the carrier will make it easier to load and unload. I have linked an article concerning how to select a bike carrier and this may be helpful to you.

I do have an option for you but the Thule OutWay 3-Bike Rack part # TH56BV will not fit your 2014 Acura TSX Sport Wagon. Instead, I recommend the Yakima HangOut 3 Bike Rack part # Y02638 so long as you do not have the power liftgate. This is actually the only trunk mount 3-bike rack I have found to be a confirmed fit for your vehicle. The HangOut has anti sway cradles to keep your bikes from making contact with the vehicle/each other, adjustable arms to ensure the bikes are carried at a... view full answer...
For tow bar wiring for your 2009 Acura TSX you can use the diode kit, # RM-15267, and not have to worry about cutting into the taillight housing. This will splice into your taillight wiring to allow your tow vehicle to control the taillight assemblies of the towed vehicle. This comes with a round 6-way connector that you will install on the front of your towed vehicle and enough coiled wire to go from there to the RV. view full answer...
