  • Trailer Hitch, Wiring, and Bike Rack Recommendations for a 2022 Mazda CX-5
  • Thank you for the details! I recommend installing the etrailer Trailer Hitch Receiver # e98902 on your 2022 Mazda CX-5 because it has that 2" receiver size, a hidden crosstube, and a matte black finish for a clean and durable look. While you're doing the installation I recommend grabbing the T-Connector Wiring Kit # C45FV and installing that as well so it's ready to go whenever you end up needing to tow a trailer. I'm attaching a helpful article on ball mounts as well. Then for a solid...

  • Recommended Roof Rack For a 2022 Mazda CX-5 to Attach Thule Hullavator Kayak Carrier
  • I recommend going with the Thule WingBar Evo roof rack. This will consist of the Crossbars # TH711420, Feet # TH710501 and Fit Kit # TH145079. Having the Thule rack with the Hullavator # TH898 will allow you to have everything keyed alike with the Lock Cylinder Set # TH450600.

  • Recommended Roof Rack that Attaches to Predrilled Holes on a 2023 Mazda CX-5
  • It should but Yakima doesn't have a roof rack that attaches to the mounting points you are describing. Theirs and a couple other manufacturer's all attach to the door frames using custom fit clips. Rhino Rack is the only one that makes bases that connect to the pre-drilled holes in your 2023 Mazda CX-5's roof. You will need the following parts: Rhino-Rack Vortex Aero Crossbars - Aluminum - Black - 46" Long - Qty 2 item # RRVA118B-2 RCL Legs for Rhino-Rack Crossbars and Pioneer Platforms...

  • Recommended Hitch and Bike Rack for a 2021 Mazda CX-5
  • To add a hitch to your 2021 Mazda CX-5, I recommend the etrailer item # e98902. This hitch is custom fit and bolts to your Mazda with included hardware. This is a class III hitch with a 2" receiver. It has a 4,000 lbs towing capacity and a 600 lbs maximum tongue weight. I have linked an installation video below along with the instructions so you can see how to get this hitch installed. As far as a bike rack goes, adding a 2" hitch to your Mazda will give you as wide a range of options...

  • etrailer Trailer Hitch Receiver Compatible With a 2022 Mazda CX-5
  • Yes, the etrailer Trailer Hitch Receiver # e98902 is confirmed to fit your 2022 Mazda CX-5. If you have a Grand Touring model you will have an additional underbody trim piece that will need to be permanently removed for hitch installation. I recommend installing the Vehicle Wiring Harness # C45FV when you install the receiver. This will give you a 4-way flat connector. This connector can connect to most small trailers as well as provide a connector for Auxiliary Lights # C53201. The auxiliary...

  • Why do Different Hitches Mount Differently for a 2019 Mazda CX-5
  • The difference between the mounting points on the Draw-Tite # 76138 and the Curt # C13315 and etrailer # e98902 hitches is simply that's just how the manufacturers decided to design the brackets. They all fit the different variants in models (aside from Diesel which you'd need part # SH47GR), and so it really just boils down to those are the places where the companies decided to attached their trailer hitch to. Out of all of the available options I really like the etrailer Trailer Hitch...

  • Is The Thule Force XT XXL Rooftop Cargo Box Compatible With Rhino-Rack Roof Rack Platform?
  • It sounds like you want to attach a Rhino-Rack Pioneer Roof Rack Platform # RR42115BF to your Rhino-Rack Roof Rack # RRVA118B-2, # RRRCL4 and # RRRCP48-BK on your 2018 Mazda CX-5. To attach a Thule Force XT XXL Rooftop Cargo Box # TH6359B to the platform you will need a set of Accessory Bars # RR43232B since the clamps on the base of the box need to clamp around a bar and will not attach to the platform channels.

The Thule cargo box is designed to work with virtually any crossbar shape, and it is known to be compatible with the Rhino Rack Vortex Aero Bars. Your CX-5 has a naked roof correct?

  • Do Draw-Tite Hitch Mounting Brackets Cover Frame Holes on a 2018 Mazda CX-5
  • Hi Kek! Yes, the mounting brackets of the Draw-Tite Max-Frame Trailer Hitch Receiver # 76138 will fit over the frame holes you highlighted from our install video when you install this on your 2018 Mazda CX-5. There are other holes in the frame rail that any water accumulation will be able to drain out from if need be. Ideally you shouldn't be getting much water inside the frame rail unless you are driving through some higher water like crossing a small creek.

  • Recommended Square Bar Roof Rack for a 2023 Mazda CX-5
  • Yes, you can reuse your Thule SquareBar item # TH712300 with your 2023 Mazda CX-5 but they will be 3" shorter than the item # TH712400 that is recommended to be used. Since you'll be reusing the same bars the Thule Hull-a-port carriers will work the same. You will need a couple of other parts depending on whether or not your Mazda has the side roof rails installed from the factory. I have listed everything you will need below: Without side rails - Evo Clamp Feet for Thule Crossbars - Naked...
