First, you'll need a roof rack. I suggest getting the Rhino-Rack Vortex Aero Crossbars # RRVA137S-2 and the RCL Legs # RRRCL4 and the Custom RCP Fit Kit # RRRCP31-BK. You can then use a T-Track accessory or a wrap accessory to handle your bikes and canoe. For the two bikes you can use the Thule ProRide XT # TH598004 and for your canoe you can use the Malone FoldAway # MAL38FR because it will carry your canoe somewhat upright. This is going to help with space on your roof since you'll be... view full answer...
Finding someone to install a trailer hitch on a vehicle like your 2019 Toyota Highlander isn't too difficult since hitch installs are relatively very easy for mechanics. The trick is to find a local garage to you with a decent reputation and they'll have no problem at all.
For your 2019 Toyota Highlander Hybrid I recommend the etrailer hitch part # e98844 as it has a great looking matte black finish, has plenty of towing capacity, and can be used with a weight distribution system when needed.. view full answer...
If I was a betting man I'd bet that the previous owner had a Tekonsha brake controller that they just unplugged at the back of the controller and left the rest of the wiring. I say that because you said it was a 4 pin flat style of connector which is the style of connector Tekonsha uses and Tekonsha is a very popular brand.
Compare the picture I attached to the 4 pin connector you have found. If this is a match then my theory is correct and you could install basically any Tekonsha controller... view full answer...
The towing capacity of your 2015 Toyota Highlander will remain unchanged throughout the life of the vehicle in the eyes of the manufacturer no matter what parts are added. I am not entirely sure what parts the towing package for a Highlander consisted of but most of the time it entails a trailer hitch, wiring harness, and transmission cooler. These components are all going to tremendous help your vehicle's ability to tow efficiently but again, they will not increase its capacity in the... view full answer...
If you are looking for the best 4 Flat wiring harness we have available for your 2022 Toyota Highlander, you will want the Tekonsha T-One Vehicle Wiring Harness # TK99FR. Not only is this a direct plug and play option making the install quick and easy, I have also the Tekonsha brand harness to be the longest lived out of all the brands we currently carry, so it is highly recommended.
To get this attached to the etrailer.com Custom Fit Class III Hitch # e75ZR, which you are correct in that... view full answer...
If you are looking for the best hitch we currently have available for your 2021 Toyota Highlander Platinum Hybrid, you will want the Curt # C99FR. This is rated up to 5,000 pounds towing and 500 pounds of tongue weight, but you will need to check your owner's manual for your vehicle's capacities as it can vary.
With that said, the reason I say this is the best option is due to how it will install. Thee is no drilling required for the install, though there will be trimming or removal of... view full answer...
First, for a brake controller, in addition to the P3, # 90195, you will also need to install a 4-Way wiring harness on the Highlander, # 118449. I have included links to the installation instructions for the wiring for you. After you have the 4-Way installed, you will need to install a 4 and 7 way installation kit, # ETBC7. This kit provides the wiring for a 7-Way and to install the brake controller. I have included some links that explain this installation as well.

I do recommend you use a weight distribution system on the Intech Explore Travel Trailer while towing with your 2018 Toyota Highlander. The reason for this is because the weight of the trailer will be over half the weight of the vehicle which is the rule we use for determining whether or not a system is needed. The tongue weight as you mentioned could also cause the vehicle to sag if not for a weight distribution system and this sag really will have a negative impact on the vehicle's braking.... view full answer...
For your 2009 Toyota Highlander Hybrid that has the full size 19 inch spare you'd want the Curt hitch part # 13534 as it is the one that fits the best with the large spares like what you have. If you check out the picture I attached you'll see a full sized spare stowed under the vehicle with the hitch installed.
I attached an install video for this hitch for you to check out as well. view full answer...
The trailer hitch I recommend for a 2015 Subaru XV Crosstrek (Non-Hybrid) is the etrailer Trailer Hitch Receiver part # e98838 which is a direct bolt-on fit with no cutting or drilling required. This trailer hitch in particular has a matte finish whereas the other options are glossy and the matte finish will help the trailer hitch blend in with the vehicle more.
The trailer hitch I recommend for a 2003 Toyota Highlander is the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver part # C13429 which also features... view full answer...
It sounds like you might be looking to install a four way trailer connector on a 2011 Toyota Highlander. If that's the case we have some great options. I recommend the T-One Vehicle Wiring Harness part # 118449 which installs using two plugs, one beneath your dash and one behind the driver's-side interior trim panel in your rear cargo area.
I don't see any reason why a remote start would use the same plugs as the trailer connector converter but if this is indeed correct, you'd have no... view full answer...
When considering a weight distribution and sway control system for towing with a 2020 Toyota Highlander, the actual tongue weight of the fully-loaded trailer is the main consideration. Such systems must be carefully matched to the actual as-towed tongue weight of the trailer - with full water and propane tanks and all supplies and gear just as when you are on the road.
I suggest first confirming your loaded trailer weight before towing and choosing a system by using a scale such as the... view full answer...
I recommend using the Malone AirFlow2 Roof Rack # MPG217 with the 65" crossbars on the raised rails of your 2008 Toyota Highlander so you can use the Thule Hullavator Pro # TH898. The longer crossbars give you enough overhang so the Hullavator Pro won't make contact with your Highlander. view full answer...
As of right now there aren't any bike racks which work like that so your best solution is to use a frame hitch mount bike rack an adapter bar like part # TH982XT for the Townie 5i and then the Thule Carbon Bike Frame Protector # TH984101 for your Trek Domane SL 5.
The RockyMounts BackStage Bike Rack # RKY10002 is a nice bike rack but since it secures bikes by the wheel it won't be good for the Townie fender. Instead I recommend using either the Sport Rider SE # HLY84FR or the Destination... view full answer...
For your 2018 Toyota Highlander the 7-way kit you'd want is the part # 22119 which also comes with brake controller wiring as well. This would work great with the Redarc Tow Pro Elite brake controller part # RED24FR that you mentioned. To utilize the opening you have on the dash for the knob we have the Mounting Panel part # 331-TPSI-002 which is a confirmed fit for your Highlander as well. view full answer...
Based on your information, I recommend the Tekonsha Prodigy P3 Brake Controller, Item # 90195, for you 2010 Toyota Highlander Limited. It is a proportional controller with an LCD display, storable settings, 3 boost levels, runs continuous diagnostics, and is transferable between vehicles.
If you do not already have a wire harness, I recommend the Hopkins Plug-In Simple Vehicle Wiring Harness with 4-Pole Connector, Item # HM11141845. If you have a factory tow package, I recommend the... view full answer...
Yes, what you found by giving your VIN to a Toyota dealer is the relevant info for picking out trailer wiring. So that means the Curt trailer wiring kit part # 56042 would be all that you'd need to have a 4-way. This easily plugs into a port at the rear of your vehicle and you'd be set.
I attached an install video for this kit for you to check out as well. view full answer...
If you are concerned about shin safety (which I don't blame you), the hitch you want for your 2015 Toyota Highlander is the Curt # C13200. Unlike the Draw Tite hitch for you vehicle it does not stick out past the rear bumper so you won't be smashing your shin into it. Check out the picture I attached that shows it in relation to the bumper. view full answer...
The Curt hitch for your 2004 Toyota Highlander # 13530 that you have comes with all of the needed hardware to install it. You would not need to re-use any hardware at all. The 6 bolts that come with the hitch would be all that you would need.
