Is A Converter Required For A Vehicle Wiring Harness On A 2009 Acura TL?
On your 2009 Acura TL a converter is indeed required so it appears the Technician was not truthful. A converter is required when vehicles have separate wiring meaning the brake light and turn signals are sent along different wires. Since trailers use combined wiring in which the brake light and turn signal are the same wire a converter is needed. For your vehicle I recommend the Hopkins # 46255 which plugs into the existing connectors on your vehicle and uses its own power wire that...

Hitch Pin Hole to Outer Most Edge of Bumper Measurement on Trailer Hitch for 2003 Acura TL
We have not had the opportunity to install the Curt Hitch # C11290 on a 2003 Acura TL, so this measure is not available. If you could measure from the hitch pin hole to the outer most part of the bumper with the hitch that you currently have, I can see if we have a rack that would fold using your current hitch. Also knowing which bike rack you have now would be helpful.

Can Longbikes Eliminator G2 Recumbent Bike Fit On Thule Raceway Pro On 2007 Acura TL
The Thule OutWay # TH45JV would not work well with your Longbikes Eliminator G2. It would be difficult mounting the bike on the arms of the carrier and the carrier has a weight capacity of 33-lbs per bike. I was unable to find the weight of your bike in my research. The design of the bike and possibly the weight would be very stressful on the back of the vehicle. I recommend installing a trailer hitch like part # 24755 on your Acura and then using a hitch-mounted bike carrier designed...

Highest Capacity Roof Rack Available For 2003 Acura TL
The only roof rack available for the 2003 Acura TL that provides 125 lbs of weight capacity is the SeaSucker brand. The other brands offer 25-35 lbs less capacity. I was not able to find the roof capacity of the Acura TL in the owner's manual. It says to contact the dealership for more information on how much weight the roof can handle. It is a good idea to find this information out before carrying kayaks. I recommend SeaSucker Monkey Bars part # 298-SX6000B because this setup gives you...

Fit of Yakima FullBack 3 # Y02633 on 2006 Acura TL
According to Yakima, the FullBack 3 will indeed fit your 2006 Acura TL. To carry womens bikes or bikes with sharply angled top tubes or step-through frames, using a frame adapter like part # Y02531 is recommended. The adapter spans the distance between the seat post and the handle bar gooseneck, and provides a level attachment point to the bike rack so the bike has greater ground clearance and is not carried at an angle.

Can a 4 Bike Hitch Bike Rack be used on an Acura 2005 TL
While you could use a Class I compatible 4 bike rack like # TH9025XT in the hitch on your 2005 Acura TL, you would be limited to 2 bikes when using the rack. This is because vehicles with Class I hitches can be damaged by the weight of the bikes being placed to far away from the back of the vehicle. The amount of torque that is applied to the hitch and vehicle frame is increased substantially as weight is added farther away form the vehicle. The only benefit would then be the ability to...
