Perfect for light-duty towing, this custom, vehicle trailer hitch receiver features fully welded, gloss powder coated steel construction. Drawbar sold separately.good enough to make it my first purchase review. installed on my 09 civic si. For those frustrated with the written instructions, the video on how to install is thorough and easy to follow, etrailer went the extra step to supply exactly what is needed to install and installation is extremely easy, a simple socket socket and a tin snips is all you need. i was able to install myself without lifting the car at all. the plug and play wiring harness that is sold separate. was simple and works well to pull my boat trailer. Have recommended this product to others
It fit with little aggravation despite what others had warned. The videos were key in making sense of the paper instructions. My car frame had all the right holes, both in size and location, and that made for easier installation.
Hey, I didn't get around to finishing the review but I was pretty unsatisfied to open the box and find the hitch looker previously installed. There were lots of scratches and a large patch where the paint was scrapped off and showing metal. The harness was fine and looked new but the hitch was most definitely installed or had been attempted to be on another vehicle.

Thank you for reaching about the condition of the hitch. I will have our customer service team reach out to assist you. I recommend touching up the affected area with a rust resistant paint like Rustoleum.
This is a really nice trailer hitch. I bought it for my 08 civic. It fit really well and is sturdy. I've had it for about a year now and no rust so far. Would recommend.
Great product! Easy to install. Pictures for what you have to cut are not clear, but I figured out what I needed to cut. Since I don’t own a truck, this is a way for me to have a way to carry large items on a trailer & not need to borrow someone’s truck.

Perfect
I'm happy to report that after a year, it has performed its job satisfactory.
It was a pain to fish the 2 bolts into the holes, it seems that there's only just barely enough room to get the bolts to the right position to pull through the holes. Probably internal bends or ridges in the way in the car frame.
First side was 15+minutes, but It took me a good hour for other side.
I wonder now if I could have swapped things to make it easier, or if I was doing it wrong to begin with.
But either way, I towed a 4x8 enclosed uhaul trailer packed full and possibly over weight for 1000 miles and had no problems at all with handling or performance.
Hitch arrived in a timely fashion. Installation was a breeze and the fit and finish were perfect. Wiring harness hooked up perfectly. etrailer made the whole process simple. I just ordered another hitch and harness for our new car.
Let me start off by saying that this is an excellent product. Installation was a breeze and it was a complete bolt on. No modifications was needed.
I have a 2013 Honda Civic Si Coupe and the only issue I ran into during the install was the hitch hitting the exhaust hanger for the rear muffler. The only reason this happened was because I have an aftermarket exhaust system and I am using polyurethane exhaust hangers. These hangers are thicker than OEM. It still bolted right up with alittle tweaking. I also left the rear splash panel and heat shield off for now. If your running a stock exhaust hanger, you will not run into the issue I did. So don't let that steer you away, lol.
Overall welds are great, and the construction is perfect. I would recommend this kit to anyone.
Sort of an odd installation but I guess I didn't know what to expect with my 08 civic sedan. I followed the instructional video on etrailer, which simplified everything for me! I don't plan on towing anything with it, just needed it for a Thule bike rack.
Fits and works, can't remember exactly but pay attention to exhaust side I had everything tightened except that side and realized I was under the pipe or something like that and I refused to start over so I lossened a pipe mount and did some shoving and fanangling on pipe to get it past the hitch support
Very fast delivery, hitch broke out of delivery box but only a little chipped paint. Pictures in directions were hard to see but there are great videos online. Installation pretty easy for the most part. Great product well worth the investment. I bought a Swagman bike rack as well both are bullet proof. Highly recommend ETrailer.com and these products.
This is my 2nd Curt hitch purchased through eTrailer originally had one on my 2012 Ford Fiesta hatch, the Civic unit went on without a "hitch".. lol. Great instructions and hardware, fast shipping and great service from eTrailer as always. Pictured with the Curt 2" Euro ball.
This is a high quality hitch from Curt, an American company, I think it is also made in America as well. Compared to the competition this looked more robust and had more mounting hardware and points of contact. They are some how cheaper than the other foreign companies. No problems with stuff made in other countries but these days it’s great to buy American, we only have a few companies left in certain industries.
This product was great very easy to install and I used it to tow my motorcycle to the track 3-6hrs away. I have no complaints great for my Acura Ilx.
Perfect fit for my 2015 Civic SI coupe. Small modification to the muffler heat shield, a pair of descent size scissors will do the job. It's mainly used for hauling my bicycle around. Would highly recommend it.
Worked great. Just what I needed for my new tow hitch on my civic
The only thing that was difficult was getting the rubber muffler hanger back on, there was not much space to do it after putting the hitch frame right next to it. The hitch was installed on a 2015 Honda Civic Si.
Product quality is what I expected. Installation was quick and easy.

This hitch is easy to install and very secure on the vehicle.
Hitch was just as shown and described. Shipping was fast and free, and with the youtube video installing was relatively easy. I have little experience with this kind of thing and went at it solo. I didn't even jack it up. Would not recommend but I managed to pull it off
just installed the hitch, went very good. the hardest part was to replace the
rubber mount on the muffler.

i could not ask for a better product
1 yr in. I primarily use it to hold my bike rack. So far so good!
Install took about 1.5 hours with excellent instructions and install video. The package arrived quickly, free of any damage. etrailer has the best customer service I’ve ever dealt with. I’ll definitely buy from them again.
That was one of the best purchases I've made mounted right on the car just like the video it was really awesome works really good thank you
Very good customer service a actual live person answering the phone and provides help with order
Helped guide me in the best direction to order the correct parts and all my options

The hitch is holding up fine. However, my Thule bike rack does not fit snugly in the hitch, and tends to wobble when driving. I installed a bracket to better hold it steady, but the rack still moves slightly.
