• Recommended Trailer Hitch and Accessories for Towing Small Trailer With a 2014 Honda Accord Sedan
• Let's begin with the hitch. I'd recommend the Curt # C11496. You'll then need a trailer connector, but the one you need will depend on whether your Accord has the LED or incandescent taillights. If you have the LED lamps, use the Curt # C56173 wiring harness. If you have incandescent taillights, use Tow Ready # 118596. Finally, you'll need a ball mount and a trailer ball. A trailer of the size you describe likely uses a 1-7/8 inch ball, like part # 19256. For a 2 inch ball, use part...

• Visibility of Hitch After Mounted on a 2009 Honda Accord 4 Door
• The hitch you were looking at, part # C11496, is not really visible unless you are about eye level with the hitch. The cross bars are swept back to tuck them underneath the vehicle. I have included a link to the instructions that will show you the profile of the rear bumper fascia in relation to the hitch.

• Roof Rack and Surfboard Carrier for 2008 Honda Accord Sedan
• The Inno square bar roof rack part numbers # INB127, # INSUT, and # INK745 which fits your 2008 Honda Accord sedan would be the rack I recommend as it's a higher quality roof rack at a lower price than it's competition. Then for a surf board carrier the Inno Surfboard Carrier part # INA744 would be a great solution as well.

• What Bike Rack and Hitch do You Recommend for 2 Lectric E-Bikes on My 2016 Honda Accord Sedan?
• The only way to get the required weight capacity you need for your 2 Lectric e-bikes is by a hitch bike rack. Also, from looking at your bike models, you most likely have front fenders and/or a rear cargo platform on the bikes. From the available specs I have, since your battery weighs 7 pounds, your total weight of your bikes will be 58 pounds per-bike. We here at etrailer recommend removing your batteries during transport to avoid any unnecessary risk of damage. With the 58-pound bikes,...

• Trailer Hitch and Wiring for a 2015 Honda Accord Hybrid
• We haven't had the chance to install a trailer hitch on a hybrid model of the 2015 Honda Accord so I don't have a video. Apparently according to at least 1 customer there is an air dam underneath that will need to be trimmed but that is not covered in the instructions for any of the hitches so it is a situation where you just have to use the hitch as a template to trim away the necessary area. Since you want to tow you should consult the vehicle owners manual, especially for a hybrid,...

• Components Needed to Tow a Trailer with 2014 Honda Accord Sedan
• The five components that will be needed to tow a trailer with your 2014 Honda Accord are a trailer hitch receiver, ball mount, pin and clip, trailer hitch ball, and wiring harness.

This custom fit trailer hitch bolts directly to the Accord's frame with no drilling required and has a 1-1/4 inch opening. Sportframe 2-1/8" Rise or 2-3/4" Drop Drawbar, # 3593. A pin and clip are included. 1-7/8...

• Will the Thule OutWay 3 Bike Rack Fit the 2011 Honda Accord Crosstour
• Thule does list the OutWay 3 Bike Rack, # TH56BV, as a fit for your 2011 Honda Accord Crosstour. Thule has tested and confirmed the fit of this bike rack on your vehicle. The fit guide notes from Thule state that the top clips will attach at the front edge of the top of the trunk. The lower clips will attach to the bottom edge of the trunk and the lower arm of the carrier will rest in the bottom of the license plate well. The rear wiper cannot be used when this carrier is mounted. If...

• Trunk Mounted Bike Rack for 2009 Honda Accord Coupe With Spoiler
• Thule offers several trunk mounted bike racks that would be compatible with your 2009 Accord Coupe, as long as the spoiler you mentioned is factory installed. The Thule Passage, part # TH910XT is an entry-level bike rack that would work great for you. If the spoiler is aftermarket, I can't confirm fit. I would strongly discourage you from attempting to install a trunk mounted bike rack on the front of a vehicle. The rack would obscure the vision of the driver and would block the headlights,...

• Will the Thule Outway 3 Bike Trunk Mount Bike Rack Fit a 2012 Honda Accord
• The Thule Raceway 3, # TH56BV, will fit the 2012 Honda Accord sedan, coupe, and Crosstour. If you will be carrying women's, children's, or alternative frame bikes, I recommend using the bike adapter bar, # TH982XT, for greater ground clearance and to carry the bikes more level. I have included a link to a video showing how the adapter works.

• How do Roadmaster Base Plates Mount to a 1992 Honda Accord
• For the 1992 Honda Accord, I recommend going with the base plates, # 1526-1, because they have removable drawbars for when you are not towing the vehicle. It is important note that these plates will work if your have a Coupe or Sedan. The base plate attaches to the vehicle frame. A connection to the frame is needed to safely flat tow the vehicle. It is possible that you will need to trim the spoiler, air dam, grille or plastic fascia on the vehicle in order to complete the installation...

• Trailer Wiring Recommendations for a 2006 Honda Accord Needing a Battery Charge Circuit
• The Tow Ready T-Connector Vehicle Wiring Harness # 118302 that you referenced would be the correct wiring harness for your 2006 Honda Accord if your vehicle is a 4-door sedan. If you have a 2-door Accord you would want the Curt Vehicle Wiring # C59236. I attached installation instructions for this product for you to check out. The next thing you will need to install is a Brake Controller 7 & 4 Way Installation Kit # ETBC7. This will give you a 12 volt accessory port on the connector that...

• Recommend Roof Rack and Roof Mounted Tandem Bike Rack for 2001 Honda Accord
• I do have a solution for you to carry a tandem bicycle on your 2001 Honda Accord, but the item you selected, Yakima ForkLift Roof Bike Rack # Y02098, is not designed for tandem bicycles. First, if you do not already have a roof rack on your Accord you will need to install one. If you have the 4-door model, I recommend the Yakima Roof Rack: # Y00408, # Y28TR, and # Y03536. In addition you need parts # Y06159 and # Y06143 if your Accord is the 4-door model or parts # Y06123 and # Y06170...

• Curt Hitch Comparisons for a 2016 Honda Accord Touring V6
• All of the hitches we offer for the 2016 Honda Accord are going to give you the same amount of ground clearance.

• 2004 Honda Accord Trailer Hitch Recommendation for 2-Bike Rack that Can Adapt to 4-Bike Rack
• Thank you for all of the details regarding your situation! I will do my best to address all of your concerns so that you can go on rides with your sons in the future. You are correct that an adapter will reduce the weight rating of the trailer hitch by 50% but the good news is that it won't reduce the weight rating of your vehicle at all (which is 100 lbs for tongue weight found in the owner's manual). For your 2004 Honda Accord EX you need to use the Curt Trailer Hitch # C11327 as it...

This rack gives you a rack with aerodynamically shaped crossbars which means you'll have a quieter ride with minimal affected fuel mileage as well. This rack is also easy to install and has plenty of capacity at 220 lbs.

• Speed Rating and Operational Use of Snow Tire Chains
• The Pewag Servo RS Self-Tensioning Tire Chains - 1 Pair # PWRS77 are great quality chains that are not difficult to install. They are made of titanium allow steel which makes them very strong and corrosion resistant. The speed rating for this set of chains is 25-30 mph. This is not just for these chains but is the industry standard. Tire chains are not for use on any roads where the pavement is bare. Using them above that speed or on bare pavement can cause loss of traction and even...

• Hitch Recommendation for a 2017 Honda Accord Hybrid for Bike Rack
• For your 2017 Honda Accord Hybrid the Curt hitch part # C11496 is a confirmed fit. For a bike rack you will be limited to 2 bikes maximum because the hitches for the vehicle are Class I hitches. I recommend going with a light weight bike rack to reduce the stress on the hitch and vehicle. The Kuat Beta, # B202-114, is a great option. It is Class I compatible, holds 2 bikes, and weighs just over 12 pounds. I have linked a video review of this bike rack for you. If you plan on carrying...
