- Trailer hitches like the Curt # C11391 come with the mounting hardware needed to install the hitch on your 2016 Acura ILX, so yes, as long as you've got the tools you'll get everything you need to get the hitch on the vehicle.
A wiring harness is not included with the hitch, so I recommend using the Tekonsha # 118627 because of the reliability of the Tekonsha harnesses. This is a plug and play harness, so the installation is very easy and because it utilizes a powered converter box your...

- Since the Thule Atlantis 1800 XT Cargo Box is no longer produced by the manufacturer, I spoke with my contact at Thule just to confirm that this will work on your vehicle. He stated that the mounting hardware on the box is designed to fit most style crossbars of up to 4 inches in width. He also stated that there is no issue with mounting this sized cargo box on the roof of a sedan like your 2014 Acura ILX.

view full answer... - Trailer Hitch and Bike Rack for a 2016 Acura ILX
- For your 2016 Acura ILX I recommend the Curt # C11391. This is a 1-1/4 inch, Class I trailer hitch so you will be able to carry 2 bikes on a compatible bike rack. I have included a link to the installation instructions for you.
For a compatible bike rack that is light weight and that will work with step-through frames and traditional frames I recommend the Kuat Sherpa # SH12G. This bike rack is made of aluminum so it is light weight and corrosion resistant.

view full answer... - Rhino Rack Roof Rack Recommendation for 2017 Acura ILX
- The Sportrack part # SR1010 that you referenced has been listed as a fit for your 2017 Acura ILX but this is a semi-custom fit rack so it won't give you the best possible roof rack fit.
Instead I would go with the Rhino Rack roof rack part numbers # RRVA126B-2, # RRRLKVA, and # DK335 which is a custom fit that will fit very well.
We have found that the Sportrack racks will fit well for some vehicles but not for everyone.

- The Rhino-Rack Ski and Snowboard Carrier # RR576 is designed to clamp onto or fit the T-slot on roof rack crossbars. You will need to add a roof rack to the 2021 Acura ILX to be able to attach any ski/snowboard carrier.

You will need the following parts:
-Inno Aero Crossbars # INXB138-2

view full answer... - Roof Rack Recommendation for 2016 Acura ILX
- The Sportrack Roof Rack part # SR1010 is listed as a fit for the roof of your 2016 Acura ILX but since this is a semi-custom fit rack it's not going to provide you with the best fitting option. Instead I would recommend you go with the Rhino Rack part numbers # RRVA126B-2, # RRRLKVA and # DK335 which is a custom fit option for your vehicle that will fit much better.
With the rack isntalled you then would be able to use a kayak carrier like the Thule carrier part # TH834 for each kayak.
view full answer... - Bike Rack Options for Ebikes on a 2018 Acura ILX
- The main obstacle when choosing a bike rack for your electric bike is finding one that can handle the weight. The average ebike weighs between 38 and 70 pounds, with most of them falling in the 45-60 range.
This means the Thule Gateway Pro 2, part # TH88VR, will more than likely not be able to carry your ebike as its weight capacity per bike is 35 pounds. This is true for the vast majority of trunk-mounted bike racks as well.
The only option to carry your bikes on your 2018 Acura ILX...
