It sounds like you are asking about the EcoHitch Stealth Trailer Hitch Receiver part # EH84GR which is a fit for your 2019 Tesla Model 3. If that is the case then the Undercover Access Hole Cover part # 306-XA2002 will be used when the receiver tube is removed but if you were to leave the receiver tube installed you could then use the Rubber Hitch Cover for 2" Trailer Hitches part # 22282 to protect from dirt and debris. view full answer...
The EcoHitch Stealth Trailer Hitch Receiver part # EH84GR is what I recommend for a 2022 Tesla Model 3. It features a bolt-on install with hidden design for a factory look while not in use. It has a 350 lb tongue weight rating which will be more than enough for a few e-bikes.
If you don't already have a rack picked out, I recommend the Hollywood Racks Sport Rider SE Bike Rack for 2 Electric Bikes part # HLY84FR. view full answer...
The best trailer hitch receiver for your 2022 Tesla Model 3 is from Stealth Hitches, for a number of reasons. First is that the receiver and ball mount are removable, so when you aren't using your bike rack or towing, your Tesla is going to completely retain its factory appearance. It also does not require any type of drilling into your Tesla's frame, which not only makes the install easier but is great for your vehicle.
There are two Stealth Hitches options that fit your '22 Tesla, one... view full answer...
You are correct in saying that the Stealth Hitches Hidden Rack Receiver - Custom Fit - 2" # 391TES317 has a tongue weight capacity of 350lbs. That means the receiver is definitely capable of transporting a lightweight motorcycle (200-250lbs) as long as the carrier is lightweight and the overall tongue weight is under 350lbs. The etrailer Motorcycle Carrier w/ Ramp for 2" Hitch - 76" Long # e98873 weighs 58lbs and would be a great option to check out. I don't have any photos showing a motorcycle... view full answer...
For your 2018 Tesla Model 3 we have two Stealth hitch options. We have the part # 391TES317 which comes with a lower hitch opening that can only be used with a hitch accessory like a bike rack and we also have the part # 391TES317T which includes the same things plus all of the accessories needed to also tow a trailer like wiring and ball mount which hitch ball.
Essentially the # 391TES317T is the # 391CONVB5 plus the # 391TES317. view full answer...
I do have an excellent trunk mount bike rack option for a 2019 Tesla Model 3 but the Hollywood Racks Gordo 2 Bike Carrier part # HRG2 is not a fit. Instead, I recommend the Yakima FullBack 2 Bike Rack part # Y02634 which is an excellent lightweight option. There is not a limit on wheelbase length but so long as you are under the 35 lb weight capacity you should be fine. view full answer...
The bolt that holds the lower hitch opening to the EcoHitch part # EH84GR that you referenced will hold it tightly and prevent movement once it's torqued down. There'd be no need for additional adjustments. view full answer...
The weight of the EcoHitch part # EH84GR which fits your 2018 Tesla Model 3 is 45 lbs. When not in use you could use the access hole cover part # 306-XA2002 which would totally cover up the hole and would give you same aerodynamics as before the hitch was installed. view full answer...
While there isn't a locking pin for the lower portion of the EcoHitch Stealth Trailer Hitch Receiver # EH84GR the good news is this won't be a high-theft item at all for a few reasons. Most people would not assume that it comes off as it appears like a standard hitch, even if they knew it came off they'd have to have the correct size wrench on them to remove it, and even if knew it wouldn't really be of much value to anyone. This is a super specific application which the likelihood of someone... view full answer...
I will do my best to answer all of your questions!
The Stealth Hitches Hidden Rack Receiver - Custom Fit - 2" # 391TES317 for your 2021 Tesla Model 3 will protrude right around 3-3/4" from the bottom edge of your rear bumper as you can see in the included picture.
The actual receiver portion of the hitch only weighs around 7lbs, and this is pretty much the same for the 1-1/4" receiver # 391RR1 and the 2" receiver included with the hitch.

The Kuat Transfer V2 1 bike rack part # KU64FR and the RockyMounts Mono Rail part # RKY10007 are both really great options but I would go with the Kuat for ease of loading since the bike wouldn't have to be lifted quite as high and because it is slightly lighter weight. The Kuat is 9-1/2 inches from the center of the hitch pin hole to nearest portion of the rack when folded up whereas the RockyMounts is 12 inches. view full answer...
Adding a trailer hitch to a vehicle like the 2021 Tesla Model 3 you were looking at at your local Tesla dealer will not void the vehicle warranty.
This is due to you being protected by the Federal Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act, passed by Congress in 1975, ensures that consumers can install aftermarket parts without the fear of voiding their warranty. The only way the warranty would be voided is if the install of the component or the component itself caused the damage to the vehicle.

I have the perfect cargo box for your in the Inno Wedge 660 Rooftop Cargo Box part # INBRM660WH. I went out to our warehouse for you and measured from the center of the forward-most mounting clamp while slide to the front of the box to the front edge of the box and came back with only 18". Therefore, the Inno Wedge 660 will not have near as much overhang as the Yakima RocketBox Pro 11 Rooftop Cargo Box that you have now. The Inno Wedge 660 also has a much more aerodynamic design as you... view full answer...
When we installed the EcoHitch part # EH84GR on a 2018 Tesla Model 3 just like your 2019 model we found that the top of the hitch opening measures 9-3/4 inches from the ground. So to tow a trailer with an 18 inch coupler height measured at the top of the ball you'd want a rise of right at 6 inches since the standard place to measure is the bottom of the coupler lip.
For that we have the Curt ball mount part # C45090 which would work perfectly for this. For a hitch ball then you'd want... view full answer...
There are two Stealth Hitches Hidden Trailer Hitch Receivers for a 2020 Tesla Model 3, part # 391TES317 which is for bike racks/cargo carriers and part # 391TES317T which is also for bike racks/cargo carriers but it also comes with the ball mount and wiring needed for towing. In regards to size, they both come with a 2" receiver tube opening which is best and what I recommend since it is most versatile. There is however an adapter, the 1-1/4" Receiver Attachment for Stealth Hitches Rack... view full answer...
The tongue weight capacity of the Stealth hitch # 391TES317 that fits your 2019 Tesla Model 3 is 200 lbs and the EcoHitch # EH84GR is 300 lbs which also is a confirmed fit. Both of these are great options with the big advantage that when you don't need it you can remove the lower opening completely and it's totally invisible. This is great from an aesthetic point of view as well as for aerodynamics. Your vehicle was designed to be as aerodynamic as possible to maximize mileage which includes... view full answer...
The ground clearance of a trailer hitch on a 2020 Tesla Model 3 will be pretty much the same no matter which option you go with as they all install in the same fashion. The location of the receiver tube is dictated by the manufacturer due to where they place the knockout panel. The ground clearance will be limited but there's really nothing you can do about this unless you go with the Stealth Hitches Hidden Rack Receiver part # 391TES317 which has a removable receiver tube that only limits... view full answer...
A hole does get cut in the lower fascia of your 2020 Tesla Model 3 to install the EcoHitch # 306-X7373 but we offer a cover for the hole that you can use when the hitch isn't in use. For that you'd just need the part # 306-XA2002. I attached a picture of what it looks like installed for you to check out as well.
I attached an install video for the hitch and a review video for the cover for you to check out as well. view full answer...
