Expert Answers about Toyota Corolla


  • Kayak Carrier Recommendation for Rhino Rack Aero 2500 Bars on a 2011 Toyota Corolla
  • For a similar kayak carrier that is confirmed to fit your Rhino Rack Aero 2500 crossbars check out the Rhino-Rack Nautic Roof Kayak Carrier part # RR571. Your cross bars are 3-1/2 inches wide whereas the Thule Top Deck Kayak Carrier # TH881 can only accommodate up to 3 inch wide crossbars so it would not work for you. I spoke to my contact at Rhino Rack and he informed me that the # RR571 does not necessarily have a weight capacity. You would be limited to the capacity of the crossbars...

  • Roof Rack and Canoe Carrier Recommendation for 2012 Toyota Corolla
  • First you'll need a roof rack installed on your 2012 Toyota Corolla so that you can carry a canoe. For that we have the Rhino Rack part numbers # RRVA118B-2, # RRRLKVA, and # DK152 which is a confirmed fit and will be a great rack to mount a canoe carrier to like the Swagman Exo Aero part # S65145 would do a great job to carry the canoe. I attached a review video for this carrier for you to check out as well.

  • Recommended Roof Rack and Cargo Carrier for 2013 Toyota Corolla
  • For your 2013 Toyota Corolla, I recommend the Rhino-Rack Vortex Aero Crossbars # RRVA118B-2, the 2500 Series Legs # RRRLKVA, and the Custom DK Fit Kit # DK152. This is a confirmed fit for your vehicle. I also recommend the metal lock cores # RRVA-LEC4 for when you use the T-channel mounting for accessories that have that mount that fits in the slot on top of your crossbars instead of wrapping around them. Then for your rooftop cargo carrier, I recommend the Thule Force XT Rooftop Cargo...

  • Hitch And Bike Rack Options For A 2017 Toyota Corolla
  • You have two options that fit your 2017 Toyota Corolla, both are 1-1/4" and both are class 1 hitch receivers. Of the two I recommend even though they are almost identical is the the Draw-Tite Sportframe Trailer Hitch Receiver - Custom Fit - Class I - 1-1/4" Item # 24913 just because many customers have been pleased with the hitch. They are both extremely easy to install so I've included an install video so you can do it at home! Now in regards to a bike rack, we will be looking for a lighter...

  • Can Trailer Hitch on 2015 Toyota Corolla Be Removed After Each Use
  • The Curt Class I hitch, part # C11265 is indeed a fit for a 2015 Toyota Corolla. As you can see by looking at the installation hardware I've linked, The hitch installs using four bolts that insert into nuts that have already been welded into the frame at the factory. No drilling is required, and no modifications will be required other than removing the tow hook if it's present. No welding is required, in fact the hitch warranty would be voided if it were welded or otherwise installed...

  • Trailer Hitch Mount Bike Carrier Recommendation for a 2010 Toyota Corolla
  • All of the trailer hitches for the 2010 Toyota Corolla are Class I trailer hitches with 1-1/4 inch receivers. The Swagman Titan, # S63400, will fit and would be an excellent choice. I have included a link to the installation instructions and a link to a video review for you. If you will be carrying any bikes without a top frame tube that goes straight across (like a typical mens bike) I recommend using adapter bar # Y02531. This will allow you to carry those bikes more level and provide...

  • How to Upgrade from a 16k Fifth Wheel Hitch to a 20k Hitch
  • Yes, as long as you have a set of industry standard rails in the bed of your truck (see pic for more info), all you would need to upgrade to a 20k plus would be to replace your current hitch with one like the Reese 20k Fifth Wheel Hitch part # RP30033 that you referenced. You will want to check the owners manual for your truck to be sure that your vehicle is capable of towing a trailer that weighs what you are planning to tow.

  • Can Rhino Rack Snowboard Carrier Carry 3 Snowboards
  • With the Rhino Rack Carrier # RR576 you could easily carry 3 boards with it. Two boards could go on one side of the rack and a single board could go on the other side by itself. This would prevent uneven pressure like you mentioned with the third board.

  • Do You Carry a Light Platform Bike Rack with A Threaded Hitch Pin that Wont Block the License Plate
  • I have a solution for you. Every hitch rack will block the license plate to a certain extend with bikes loaded or when folded up. For a solution that does not involve a roof rack, I recommend the Yakima PlateMate License Plate Holder for Bike Racks # Y02713. With the PlateMate, you will be able to attach your license plates to your bikes during transport. However, if you are open to trunk racks, the Thule OutWay Platform Trunk Bike Rack for 2 Bikes # TH65JV is an option that is both lighter...

  • Floor Mats Recommendation for 2016 Toyota Corolla
  • For a set of black floor mats confirmed to fit your 2016 Toyota Corolla you would want the part # WT445941 for if you have a manual transmission with the heating vents below the front row seats, part # WTW320 for if you have an auto transmission without the vents, or part # WT445801 for if you have the vents and an auto transmission. You will need to look under the seats of your vehicle to determine if you have the vents or not.

  • Curt vs Draw-Tite Hitch for 2017 Toyota Corolla, which is Higher Quality
  • For overall quality the Curt hitches like the # C12136 that you referenced are the winners. We've found they seem to have the highest quality control whereas other companies we've seen the hitch tubes welded at almost an angle so the bike racks were tilted to the side. We've also found that their powder coat finish is the most durable. While the hitch adapter route isn't my favorite solution for carrying a bike rack the Curt will work for that.

  • Trunk Mounted Bike Rack Recommendation for a 2014 Toyota Corolla with Rear Spoiler
  • Since your 2014 Toyota Corolla has a spoiler the best trunk mounted bike rack recommendation, I could make for you would be the Saris Bones EX 2 # SAR83FR. This trunk rack has been confirmed to fit your vehicle and is specifically designed to work on vehicles with spoilers. If you plan on carrying any womens or alternative framed bikes without horizontal top tubes you may also be interested in purchasing a Swagman Easy-Out Women's and Alternative Frame Bike Adapter # 64005 to provide...

  • Trailer Hitch, Wiring Harness and Ball Mount Recommendation for 2018 Toyota Corolla
  • I took a look at an online copy of the owner's manual for a 2018 Toyota Corolla and it simply states that towing a trailer is not recommended with the vehicle so the decision will ultimately be up to you. If you do decide to use your '18 Corolla to pull your jet ski you will need a trailer hitch, wiring harness, ball mount and hitch ball. The trailer hitch I highly recommend for your '18 Corolla is the Draw-Tite Trailer Hitch # 24913 because it is a bolt-on installation that will not require...

  • The replacement locking cap part # SR05013600000 is the correct cap for a Sportrack # SR1002 roof rack. The lock core part # THLOCKN167 would be the same as yours that starts with the letter E. For keys you would need the part # THKEYN167.

  • Is There Replacement Hitch Install Hardware for 2016 Toyota Corolla
  • We sell trailer hitch replacement hardware with the part # RHK but the part # C16125-SK4 is actually for a fifth wheel hitch and not for a rear mounted hitch that would attach to a 2016 Toyota Corolla. On the RHK product page you'd need to enter your hitch brand and part number so that we can ship you out the correct hardware.

  • Ball Mount and Trailer Wiring for a 2016 Toyota Corolla with Hidden Hitch Class I Trailer Hitch
  • Since you have a Hidden Hitch Class I trailer hitch on your 2016 Toyota Corolla you will need to use a Class I ball mount. Also you have to use the ball mount specified by the hitch manufacturer otherwise it will void the hitch warranty. The correct ball mount for this hitch and vehicle is # 3593 and it must be used in the rise position only. It comes with a hitch pin and clip. For a 1-7/8 inch ball I recommend # 19256 and for a 2 inch I recommend # 19258. And for trailer wiring I recommend...
