Recommended Trailer Hitch Receiver, Ball Mount, And Wiring For 2017 Mazda 3 Hatchback w/ LED Light
Question:
Will the hitch work on my Mazda 3 hatch with led taillights AND rear diffuser?
asked by: David Y
Expert Reply:
For your 2017 Mazda 3 hatchback with LED taillights and rear diffuser, the Draw-Tite Sportframe Trailer Hitch Receiver - Custom Fit - Class I - 1-1/4" # 24914 is a confirmed fit.
If you will be using this hitch for light towing, I recommend the Sportframe Drawbar 2-1/8" Rise or 2-3/4" Drop 2000 kit # 3593. You will also need a hitch ball like # 19256 for a 1-7/8 inch or # 19258 for a 2 inch hitch ball.
For trailer wiring, I recommend the 4 Pole Harness and Hardwire Kit - Includes Tester # C59496. This will give you a 4-way flat connector. It will protect your vehicle wiring from overload by drawing power directly from your vehicle battery.
