Expert Answers about Toyota Prius c


  • Easiest To Install Trailer Wiring Harness for a 2014 Toyota Prius C
  • I do have a very simple and easy to use option for your 2014 Toyota Prius C but I have never heard of any such thing as a wireless trailer wiring harness before. Therefore, the only way to tow a trailer with your Prius is to install a wired trailer wiring harness. I recommend the Curt T-Connector Vehicle Wiring Harness part # C56275 because it is plug and play which means no cutting or splicing is required. This will be the easiest to install and least invasion trailer wiring harness available...

  • Trailer Hitch and Cargo Carrier Recommendation for 2012 Toyota Prius C
  • You sure can! For a hitch, I recommend the Draw-Tite Class I hitch, part # 24971. For a cargo carrier, I really like the # 63155 from Pro Series. The carrier has usable platform space of about 20 x 48 inches, and features an angled shank that increases the carrier's ground clearance by 3 inches. If you needed a cargo bag to protect your cargo from road gunk, we offer the # e98990 cargo bag that's 9 cubic feet of storage space.

  • Can 46 Inch Rhino Rack Vortex Crossbars be Used on 2013 Toyota Prius c
  • The 46 inch Rhino-Rack Vortex Aero Crossbars # RRVA118B-2 (along with the 2500 Series Legs # RRRLKVA and Fit Kit # DK351) are confirmed to fit your 2013 Toyota Prius c. Rhino-Rack suggests the shorter 41 inch bars # RRVA106B-2 for your Prius, which is why we have it listed this way, but the longer 46 inch bars will also work if you want a bit more overhang past the roof rack feet on your vehicle. I have attached the installation video that you referenced, along with the written instructions...

  • How Do You Recommend That I Carry Two Bikes On My 2014 Toyota Prius C
  • I have a couple of options that will work for you. The safest way to carry two bikes on your 2014 Prius C, and my recommendation, is by hitch bike rack. This will require you to get a hitch receiver installed, but the rack will be bolted into your hitch receiver and not strapped to your vehicle. The hitch receiver that I recommend is the EcoHitch Hidden Trailer Hitch Receiver - Custom Fit - 2", part # 306-X7194. It has a maximum tongue weight of 300 lbs and a maximum gross trailer weight...

  • The pin holes of 1-1/4 inch hitches like the Curt # C11484 you have for your 2012 Toyota Prius c require a pins/locks that have a 1/2 inch diameter. So what you'd need instead would be the part # e98879 which has this pin diameter like you need.

  • Platform Bike Rack Recommendation for Draw Tite Class I Hitch part # 24971
  • I have a similar platform bike rack that would fit the Draw Tite hitch part # 24971 that you referenced, but this is a Class I hitch and the bike rack you referenced is for Class II and up hitches so it would not work. Instead you would need the Swagman XTC2 part # S64670. The most popular bike rack we carry that has been confirmed to fit this vehicle is the Swagman XTC2 Bike Rack part # S64670. This rack has a ton of positive reviews from our customers who have tried it. Check out the...

  • Roof Rack Recommendation for a 2013 Toyota Prius c
  • The Rola roof rack 59729 is designed to fit the Toyota Prius V but not the Prius c. We do have roof rack options that fit the Prius c. I have included a link to the main page for you. The most economical option is Rhino-Rack roof rack made of crossbars # RRVA106B-2, feet # RRRLKVA, and custom clamp kit # DK351.

  • How to Carry 4 Bikes with a 2015 Toyota Prius c
  • There are no 4-bike truck racks confirmed as a fit for your 2015 Toyota Prius C. Only 3 bikes like the Yakima HangOut part # Y02638. Only way to carry that fourth bike would be with a roof rack and roof bike rack. For a roof rack the Rhino Rack crossbars # RRVA106B-2, feet # RRRLKVA, and fit kit # DK351 is a confirmed fit and would work well. Then for a roof bike rack we have the Rhino Rack Hybrid bike rack part # RRRBC050.

  • Recommended Lightweight Bike Rack for a 2013 Toyota Prius C and Womens Bikes
  • The Thule Roadway 2 Bike Rack # TH9058 weighs in at 28 lbs. If your bikes have smaller frames then you would likely need an adapter bar like the Thule # TH982XT otherwise your bikes will likely sit at a weird angle which not only makes it awkward to load, but it will also reduce ground clearance (see attached with the bar installed). If you can send me some pictures of your bikes I can get a better idea as to if you'd probably need an adapter bar or not. If you don't already have a trailer...

  • Roof Rack Recommendation for 2012 Toyota Prius c
  • The best solution we can offer you is a roof rack that fits your 2012 Toyota Prius C that does not require drilling like the Rhino Rack roof rack part numbers # RRVA106B-2, # RRRLKVA, and # DK351. This is a much easier to install option that does not require permanent modification. Drilling into your roof presents a few problems. Contacting electrical wires (which we do not know where they are) as well as opens up the potential for leaks.
