The Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # C13394 you mentioned which is the only trailer hitch receiver available for your 2021 Lexus RX 350L can indeed be installed at home as long as you are comfortable this type of work. This hitch is rated at a 5/10 difficulty level.

You will need a ratchet, torque wrench, with 10,17, and 19mm 1/2" sockets, a 6" socket extension, a rotary tool or utility knife and hacksaw, and last but not least safety glasses to complete the install.

I included a link to the written installation instructions and a video showing the # C13394 being installed on a similar 2018 RX 350L to help you with the install.

From what I could find it looks like your 122R (red) and 122Y (amber) lights measure 3.75" x 1.70" x .81". We don't have any replacement lense directly for the GLO-BRITE lights but we do have some similar lights that you could use…

Brake systems are not dependent on the hub bolt pattern. So you can use the Electric Trailer Brake Kit #AKEBRK-7-SA for 12 inch hub/drums or #AKEBRK-35-SA for 10 inch hub/drums. Then use #10-1-1 wire sold by the foot for your brake magnet wiring.…
