You're correct the reviews are for later models but the Curt trailer hitch receiver, part # C11289, does fit the 2001 Toyota Echo. It's a 1-1/4 inch, Class I trailer hitch that bolts on with no drilling. I've linked the install details for you to take a look at.
If you're going to be towing a trailer with your Echo you also need the recommended ball mount, part # C45521, with either a 2 inch hitch ball, part # A-82, or a 1-7/8 inch ball, part # A-80. Then use # F-4 for a pin and clip.

The RoadMaster StowMaster Car-Mounted Tow Bar # RM-501 will work on your 2000 Toyota Echo if it is equipped with a compatible set of Roadmaster base plates such as their # 521156-1.
These EZ-series base plates will work fine with the StowMaster tow bar and they install without welding using included hardware.
Safe and legal flat towing requires some additional components to go along with the base plates and tow bar, as outlined in the linked article. Safety cables are required but these... view full answer...

Yes, you can get our etrailer.com Coupler Lock, part # e98884 keyed alike for the Swagman XC4 bike rack. You can also get them keyed alike with a cable lock, like the 10-foot Cable Lock, part # e98891. The hole for the coupler lock is located on the ratchet hook bracket, on the opposite side from the hook. The lock goes through this set of holes and keeps the ratchets from moving.
I am sorry, the Swagman XC4, part # S64665, has a threaded shank, and the lock that is designed specifically... view full answer...
Rhino-Rack RFMPC Roof Rack Legs - Fixed Mount - 2" Tall - Qty 2 Item # RFMPC2 is actually just the feet and not the bars. The bars come in various lengths: 44", 50", 54", 59", 65", 71", and 78". I have included a link to the bar options below.
A pair of these bars is generally rated for 165 pounds. So if we take that and divide by 4 (1 for each foot) the capacity per foot is 41.25 pounds. However, the legs # RFMPC2 don't have an official capacity. view full answer...
I looked in the owner's manual for your 2003 Toyota Echo and it doesn't specify whether or not the vehicle can be dolly towed. Therefore, you will need to consult your local dealer to see if this is allowed. However, the majority of front wheel drive vehicles can be dolly towed so if this is the case then I recommend using the Roadmaster Tow Dolly with Electric Brakes part # RM-2050-1 because it comes with everything you need to hit the road save for a trailer connector, part # PK12706.

You need the Thule One-Key System Lock Cylinders which are available in a quantity of four # TH450400, six # TH450600 or eight # TH450800.

The bolts that come with the Curt hitch # C11289 that you mentioned go into weld nuts in the frame. If the bolts are spinning, this likely means the weld nuts have broken loose. This is not completely surprising for a 20 year old car. The frame rail is hollow, but I am not aware of any existing access point that would allow your to reach the back of the bolts. Even if you could get to them to remove the bolts, the weld nuts would have to be re attached to the inside of the frame in order... view full answer...

The SportRack # SR1002 roof rack will not fit on your 2000 Toyota Echo 2-door, but another rack from SportRack will, their semi-custom system # SR1003 and short-roof adapter # SR1116. But because this rack is designed to fit so many different cars, its fit on any given one will not be as secure as with one of the costlier custom-fit racks.
But if these roof racks do not fit your budget I can still offer you an effective and very low-cost solution for carrying two surfboards on your 2000... view full answer...

The only bike rack we carry that has the required 80-pound weight capacity for your e-bike is the Hollywood Racks Sport Rider SE Bike Rack for 2 Electric Bikes # HLY74FR. With the Sport Rider SE, you will have an 80-pound maximum weight capacity. In order to make sure you fall under that weight and avoid any unnecessary damage to the battery, I recommend removing the battery during transport. Also, the center of the shank's pinhole on the rack is 5 inches from the closest part of the rack.... view full answer...

The SportRack Roof Rack part # SR1003 can fit your 2005 Toyota Echo. To determine if this would carry two kayaks you need to consider two things. The weight capacities of your vehicle roof and this roof rack (130 lbs). The lesser of the two capacities will be your overall capacity.
If you determine you have the weight capacity then I would recommend the Thule Hull-A-Port part # TH834. view full answer...
