Expert Answers about Honda Element


  • Does Trailer Hitch Receiver For 2005 Honda Element Require Drilling
  • I don't blame you for not being enthused about drilling to mount a hitch on your 2005 Honda Element, though that will be necessary with both of the hitches we offer that fit, the etrailer Trailer Hitch Receiver # e78KR and Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # 13574. To be honest, the reason why the Draw-Tite isn't offered anymore is because they were recently bought and issues have risen with product availability. Basically, only their most popular products are being made available right now...

  • Will Yakima MegaWarrior Roof Basket Fit Surco Crossbars on a 2007 Honda Element

  • Will the Thule OutWay Trunk mount Bike Rack Fit a 2010 Honda Element
  • The Thule OutWay trunk mount bike rack # TH45JV, will fit nicely on your 2010 Honda Element. This bike rack uses 4 retractable cables to secure the rack to the vehicle so it installs very quickly. To carry women's, children's, or alternative frame bikes you will need an adapter like you have said, # TH982XT for greater ground clearance and to carry the bikes more level. I have included a link to a video that shows how the adapter works. I researched the Specialized Ariel bikes and the...

  • Will the ThuleOutWay 2 Trunk Mount Bike Rack Fit a 2005 Honda Element
  • The Thule OutWay 2, # TH45JV, is my top choice for a trunk mount bike rack, and it will fit your 2005 Honda Element. The main advantage of the Raceway is that it uses only 2 retractable cables, rather than the 4-6 straps, to mount to the vehicle. Because of this design it installs and removes from the vehicle faster than any other trunk mount rack I have used. The cables can be locked into place to deter theft and there is also an integrated cable lock to secure the bikes to the rack....

  • Hitch Fit for 2007 Honda Element SC
  • If you're wanting a Class I hitch with a 1-1/4 inch receiver, you'll want to go with the Curt # C11699 for a 2007 Honda Element SC, as the # C11700 isn't a fit for the SC model. This being said, I'd recommend going with a Class III hitch with the 2-inch receiver opening, like part # e78KR. The 2-inch receiver is much more common, and there are a lot more available accessory options for the 2-inch receiver such as cargo carriers or bike racks. The price differential between the 1-1/4 inch...

  • The Curt Folding Cargo Carrier # C18151 measures 6 inches from the center of the hitch pin hole to the closest portion of the carrier when it is folded.

  • Will the Rola NV2 Bike Rack Hold a Bike with Fenders
  • The Rola NV2 Bike Rack uses rubber straps to secure the bike tires on the cradles. As long as there is room between the fender of your bike and the tire to feed through the rubber strap, then you will have no problem using a bike with fenders on this bike rack. I do not recommend securing the rubber straps over the fenders as the tension could damage the fenders. If you have fenders that sit close to the tires or fenders that cover the sides of the tire as well as the top, then you may...

  • Will Thule The Stacker Fit Factory Crossbars On 2011 Honda Element
  • The Thule Stacker, part # TH830 would work well on your Element with the factory roof rack. This carrier can hold up to 4 kayaks, but you will want to make sure you do not exceed the roof weight capacity of your Honda. Another note is that the kayaks cannot be longer than 10 ft. This carrier comes with 1 pair of ratcheting tie downs, 2 straps, and buckle protectors included. If the kayaks you are longer than 10 ft I recommend part # TH834.
