  • Trailer Hitch Recommendation for 2013 Buick Verano
  • It sounds like you're looking for a Reese 77269 hitch Reese, Draw-Tite and Hidden Hitch are all brands owned by Cequent Performance Products. The Reese 77269, The Draw-Tite # 24882 and the Hidden Hitch # 60299 (no longer available) Class I Hitches are all manufactured in the same factory, and all three are identical. The only difference between the three is the brand name and part number on the sticker affixed to the hitch. In other words, there's no difference in quality or weight rating...

  • Will The Curt Mulit-Fit Trailer Hitch Receiver Fit a 2015 Buick Verano?
  • For your 2015 Buick Verano I recommend the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # C11282. This is custom fit for your Verano. The Multi-Fit Receiver # C13900 you found is not listed as an approved fit for any Buick. I have attached a copy of the instructions below for this receiver which lists the vehicles it fits and what holes must be drilled for each vehicle it fits to use. The custom fit receiver above will not require any drilling either making for an easier installation.

  • Fit of Draw-Tite Class I Receiver on 2013 Buick Verano
  • According to the folks at Hidden Hitch, when installed on a 2013 Buick Verano, the crossbar of the # 24882 will be almost totally concealed behind the bumper fascia. You can see how the hitch sits in relation to the bumper by taking a look at the cross-section drawing from the installation instructions. The instructions state that the heat shield needs to be lowered or a small hole (approximately 1 inch in diameter) cut into it to allow access to the access hole in the frame member. The...

  • Wiring a Third Brake Light on a Camper Shell for a 2005 Ford Ranger
  • If you're needing to power a third brake light that's on a camper shell it will need to be wired into the truck's wiring. Use the Curt Tail Light Converter # C56196 to separate the turn signals from the brake light circuit. The red wire on the output side will then be wired to the brake light on the camper shell and the green and yellow will be capped off and not used.

  • Hitch Recommendation For 2013 Buick Verano
  • Yes, the Draw-Tite Class I - 1-1/4" # 24882 will work well for you, assuming your Verano is not a Turbo or Dual Exhaust model. This hitch will support a hauling gross trailer weight (GTW) of 2,000 lbs. It's a good idea to check your owner's manual for your Verano to ensure the weight of your cargo trailer does not exceed your Verano's hauling limit. For the best experience in pulling a cargo trailer with your Verano, I also recommend the T-One Vehicle Wiring Harness # 118564 , the Draw-Tite...

  • Roof Rack Recommendation for 2013 Nissan Cube and Buick Verana and Bike Rack, Kayak Carrier and Box
  • The closest option for a roof rack that fits both your 2013 Buick Verano and Nissan Cube will be a Rhino Rack Vortex rack that allows you to use the same foot kit between the two part # RRRLKVA but the bar lengths and fit kits are different for each vehicle. The Verano needs the shorter bar length of # RRVA118B-2 and the Cube needs the longer # RRVA137S-2. The Verano needs the fit kit # DK340 and the Cube needs the fit kit # DK263. For kayak carriers the Yakima JayLow part # Y04073 is...

  • Utility Trailer, Trailer Hitch Receiver, and Wiring Harness For Towing With 2014 Buick Verano 2.4L
  • First you will only be able to tow a trailer if your 2014 Buick Verano has the 2.4L engine and a single exit exhaust. The 2.0L turbo is not rated to tow from Buick and will not fit with Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # C11282. This receiver paired with a 2.4L single side exhaust will allow you to tow up to 1,000lbs according to your owners manual. The Curt T-Connector Vehicle Wiring Harness # C56288 will give you a 4-way flat trailer connector. This will connect to a Detail K2 Mighty Multi...

  • Hitch and Bike Rack Recommendation for 2014 Buick Verano Turbo
  • There is a hitch available for your 2013 Buick Verano Turbo, check out the Curt Hitch part # C11282. I attached an install video for you to check out. With this hitch you can install a Class I rated hitch mounted bike rack, but you will also need to use a stabilizer strap like part # 18050.

  • Curt or Draw Tite Trailer Hitch Recommendation for 2013 Buick Verano
  • Function wise the Draw Tite part # 24882 is the winner for your 2013 Buick Verano. The reason I say that is that the Curt you mentioned requires the use of a stabilizer strap like part # 18050 when carrying a non-supported load like a bike rack and the Draw Tite does not. So it is the winner in my opinion.

  • How to Pick Out Replacement Brake Assemblies for a Snowmobile Trailer 2010 Rough Rider
  • When it comes time to replace the shoes of trailer drum brakes it is almost always just easier and more cost effective to just replace the assemblies. To determine what assemblies you would need is pretty easy. You need to first determine what size you have. You can do this by measuring the inside dimensions of the hub on your trailer once you remove it like in the picture I attached. I attached a link to a page that has all of the assemblies we carry. You will need to first select the...

  • How to Tow an Electric Scooter with a 2012 Buick Verano
  • I do have an option for you but according to the owner's manual for your 2012 Buick Verano, the maximum tongue weight capacity for the vehicle without any passengers or cargo is 150 lbs. Therefore, the Go-Go Elite Traveller would be too heavy to carry on the rear of the vehicle. In order to carry the scooter around I recommend using a small trailer like the Detail K2 Mighty Multi Utility Trailer part # K2MMT4X6. In order to use this trailer you are going to need a trailer hitch, wiring...

  • Best Trailer Hitch for 2013 Buick Verano
  • If you do not have the Turbo and Dual Exhaust models I would go with the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # C11282 mainly because according to our website the install difficulty is easier on this one than the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # C11282. They both have the receiver opening of 1-1/4" x 1-1/4" and the weight rating of 200lbs TW and 2000lbs GTW. You will also need the Draw-Tite Drawbar for 1-1/4" Hitches # 3593 rated at 2000lbs and the Pin and Clip # PC2. If you are looking for a hitch...

  • Thanks again for your recent purchase! The Yakima RidgeBack 4 Bike Hitch Mounted Folding Rack, # Y02458, can be used on a sedan but it is not compatible with a Class I hitch like the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver, # C11282, that installed on your 2014 Buick Verano.

  • Which Roof Rack For a 2017 Buick Verano With Sunroof and Roof-Rail Airbags
  • From my research The Malone HandiRack Universal Roof Rack # MPG452 will fit on the roof of your 2017 Buick Verano, but in your owners manual it states that since you have the roof-rail airbags it is not recommend to use any roof mounted accessories that have a strap that goes through your door or window as it will block the airbag from being deployed. Since all of the inflatable roof racks mount with a strap through your vehicle the only option is to install a roof rack is with the SeaSucker...

Once you remove the felt liner covering the back of the tail light assembly, you will see a black connector plugged into the tail light assembly.

  • Hitch and Trunk Mount Bike Rack Recommendations for a 2014 Buick Verano
  • The Thule Passage trunk mount bike rack # TH910XT is indeed a fit for the 2014 Buick Verano. It is possible that any trunk mount bike rack on any vehicle could deform the rear bumper fascia. That is an inherent risk in using a trunk mount bike rack. If that is a concern I recommend installing a trailer hitch and using a hitch mount bike rack. For a hitch I recommend # 24882. This is a Class I hitch with a 1-1/4 inch receiver. Using a hitch will keep the bikes off of the vehicle and it...
