Expert Answers about Chevrolet HHR

• Will the Rightline Gear Cargo Hatch Saddlebag Part # RL100B90 Fit a 2011 Chevrolet HHR
• The Rightline Gear Cargo Hatch Saddlebag part # RL100B90 is an extremely universal cargo bag for use on the back hatch of most suv's. They are not vehicle specific but after reviewing both the cargo bag and a 2011 Chevrolet HHR, I don't see any reason as to why they would not work with one another. The only thing I can think of is that you may lose a bit of visibility at the bottom portion of your rear window due to the size of the bag in comparison to the hatch. The bag includes a sack...

• How Does Backup Light of Fusion LED Trailer Tail Light Work
• In order to utilize the backup light function of the Fusion LED Trailer Tail Light # STL211RB you will need to plug in a 2-Wire Pigtail, either part # A45CB or # A49PB for a right angle pigtail. You can see from the accompanying photo of the rear of this light that it has connections for both a 2-wire and 3-wire plug. This would need to be used along with the 3-Wire Pigtail # A45PB or # A47PB (right angle) which gives the light its tail light functions. I looked up your order from the...

• Is There a Trailer Hitch for 2010 Chevrolet HHR With Heavy Tongue Weight Capacity
• The only trailer hitches that fit a 2010 Chevy HHR are Class I hitches with a 1-1/4 inch receiver, 2,000 lb towing capacity and 200 lb tongue weight capacity. The reason is because these vehicles simply don't have the capacity for that much extra weight, and aren't designed with that purpose in mind. Five hundred pounds is a very large amount of tongue weight, and the only vehicles that have hitches with that much capacity are large trucks or SUVs. The only option to transport a mobility...

• Will The Rightline Gear Rooftop Cargo Bag RL100S20 Fit A 2011 Chevy HHR?
• The Rightline Gear Sport 2 Rooftop Cargo Bag # RL100S20 will attach to a cargo basket, raised side rails, roof rack, or a bare roof, so it is very versatile. However, if your 2011 Chevy HHR does not have raised rails, either factory or aftermarket, and it is a 2 door/Panel style, this will not work. This is due to it needing to have all 4 rubber-coated car clips/straps attached to make sure it is secure on the roof. If you have the 4 door version and/or the raised rails, then you are perfectly...

• Thule Passage Trunk Mounted Bike Rack # TH910XT for 2011 Chevy HHR
• According to our friends at Thule, their Passage trunk mounted bike rack, part # TH910XT is indeed a fit for your 2011 HHR. For womens bikes or bikes with sharply angled top tubes or step-through frames, using a frame adapter like part # TH982XT 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.

• Will The Blue Ox Acclaim Work A Blue Ox Baseplate On A 201 Chevy HHR
• The only compatible Blue Ox baseplate for a 2011 Chevy HHR is the # BX1692, which has a bracket spacing of 22". The Blue Ox Acclaim Non-Binding Tow Bar # BX4330 requires a spacing of 23" - 30" so it will not be compatible with the baseplate. The next closest option in price and functionality is the etrailer SD Non-Binding Tow Bar for Blue Ox Base Plates # e47ZR.

• Trailer Hitch Receiver For 2011 Chevy HHR For Use With 2 Inch Bike Rack
• The only trailer hitch receiver for your 2011 Chevy HHR is indeed a Class I, 1-1/4 inch hitch, but what you may be able to do is use a 1-1/4 inch to 2 inch adapter. I say "may" because the use of an adapter will reduce the tongue weight capacity of the hitch by 50 percent; that means the most your bike rack and bikes can weigh is 100 lbs. If that's okay, what you will need is the following: - Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # C11447 - Trailer Hitch Receiver Adapter 1-1/4" to 2" Hitch # e43YR -...
