  • Best Bike Rack for Carrying an Electra Townie Bike on a 2017 Honda Accord
  • Does your 2017 Honda Accord have a trailer hitch? If not I recommend # C11496 because it is going to be the best option for a bike rack. It looks like all of the current Townie models have fenders with the exception of the Original 1. And all of them have step-through frames so those are important bike features that will help determine the best bike rack for you. And since the hitch is a Class I the bike rack will need to be Class I compatible. The Kuat Transfer # KU74FR is a great option....

  • Recommended Roof Rack For Carrying Cargo On 2012 Honda Accord Sedan
  • I recommend going with the largest crossbar available so that you have as much room as possible for your cargo. A nice large setup that fits your 2012 Honda Accord Sedan is the Inno Aero Crossbars - Aluminum - Black - 54" Long - Qty 2 # INXB138-2. You'll also need the appropriate Feet # INXS250 and Fit Kit # INK745.

  • Trailer Hitch Recommendation for 2017 Honda Accord without Requiring Stabilizer Strap
  • Curt requires the use of their stabilizer strap part # 18050 # C11496 when using their hitch to carry a non-supported load like a bike rack. It's basically an additional precaution that Curt has for their hitches to help take the shock of a bike rack or cargo carrier out of the setup over bumps. I attached a review video for you to check for the strap as well. I attached an install video for the hitch for you to check out too. Both hitches would be visible on your vehicle also.

  • Thule Passage vs. Thule Gateway Pro 3-Bike Trunk Mounted Rack
  • So you'll need a 3-bike trunk mounted rack for your Accord since you occasionally want to transport all 3 bikes, and the best option between the Thule Passage 3 Bike Rack # TH911XT and Thule Gateway Pro 3 Bike Rack # TH78VR, the best option, by far is the Gateway Pro # TH78VR. There are a number of reasons for this, and ease of use is chief among them. The process of just securing your bikes to the rack is made so much easier for the Gateway Pro over the Passage because the Gateway uses...

  • How to Carry and Electric Bike With Fenders on 2009 Honda Accord
  • The Thule EasyFold XT Bike Rack # TH903202 is a great option for carrying your Magnum Pathfinder E-Bike on your 2009 Honda Accord. It has a frame mount clamp design that makes it easier to carry bikes with a step-through design. This also helps with mounting your bike since it has fenders. The generous weight capacity of 65 lbs per bike is more than enough to carry your bike. I would recommend removing your bikes battery during transport. It will save some stress on the battery but also...

  • Trailer Hitch and Wiring to Tow a Rental Trailer with a 2007 Honda Accord Coupe
  • Trailer hitches that install to the frame of a vehicle are the better options for your 2007 Honda Accord. You won't have to drill through the trunk pan and the attachment points on the vehicle are stronger. I recommend Draw-Tite trailer hitch # 24787 for your towing needs. The recommended ball mount is # 3592 and you can use 1-7/8 inch ball # 19256 and 2 inch ball # 19258. You will also need trailer wiring. To add a 4-Way flat connector to the rear of the vehicle you can use # C59236. I...

  • What Size Fish Wire Comes with the Curt Hitch C11496
  • The Curt Hitch part # C11496 that you referenced comes with a bolt leader/fish wire to use for installing the hardware of the hitch so you would not need to source one separately. The carriage bolts that come with this hitch are 7/16-14 X 1.50 GR5. If you wanted to order a replacement bolt leader or a spare you would need part # 80103-1. Your dual exhaust would not be a fit issue at all.

  • Secondary Transmission Cooler For A 2000 Honda Accord V6 Needed
  • The best way to select the correct transmission cooler is by determining where there is enough space to mount it. The attached diagram shows the best three positions to mount the transmission cooler in order. Transmission coolers are more efficient when they receive maximum air flow. The "A" transmission cooler location in the diagram is 100% efficient so a larger transmission cooler is not needed to compensate for the loss of cooling power. My recommendation is the Derale Dyno-Cool...

  • Can Thule T2 Pro Bike Rack for 2 inch Hitch be Used with 1-1/4 inch Hitch of 2014 Honda Accord
  • It's not an ideal solution but you can use a 1-1/4 inch to 2 inch hitch adapter with the Thule T2 Pro XT part # TH83JV and it will fit a 1-1/4 inch hitch the # C11681 that fits your 2014 Honda Accord. For a compatible adapter you'd want the part # HTAD. Your best solution would be the T2 that fits the 1-1/4 inch hitch part # TH23JV.

  • Is Fairing Needed with Thule Aero Crossbars
  • The Thule Aero bars like the # TH711400 really don't need a fairing as they were designed to be as aerodynamic as possible. The only real reason you'd want to also use a fairing is if you liked they way they looked.

  • Recommended Square Bar Roof Rack Setup For 2010 Honda Accord Sedan
  • I have a solution for you, but Thule does not have any roof rack kits available for your vehicle. While I'm sure this is not the news you would like to hear, I will go ahead and give you my recommendation for a new setup. If you would like to stick with a similar square-bar setup, then I'd go with Inno Square Crossbars - Steel - Black - 50" Long # INB127. You will also need Feet # INSUT and Fit Kit # INK745. Locks and keys are included for the crossbar feet, which will keep it secured to...

  • Which Hitch to Carry Bike Rack On 2013 Honda Accord 4-Door
  • Of the available hitches for your 2013 Honda Accord, I believe that the Curt Class I Receiver, part # C11681 would provide the best appearance. The cross tube is constructed of tubular powder coated steel, which in many peoples opinion looks better than the square tubing of the Draw-Tite or Hidden Hitch models. The tubing bends up and back a few inches to either side of the receiver opening, which means that the entire cross tube is not visible from the rear. I have provided a photo provided...

  • Roof Mount Cargo Bag Recommendation for a 2005 Honda Accord Sedan with Yakima Roof Rack
  • The straps and bag shape of roof mount bags is such that you cannot mount them sideways on the roof of a vehicle. Ideally, you would want a bag to fit between the bars but if that is not possible you can rest the bag on the bars. It may sag in the middle so a roof protector, # RL100650, is recommended. The largest capacity cargo bag we have is # RL100S30 with 18 cubic feet of storage. Cargo boxes on the other hand go up to 21 cubic feet so a box is still a viable option but more costly....

  • Recommend Trailer Hitch Receiver and Platform Bike Rack for 2019 Honda Accord Hybrid
  • For your 2019 Honda Accord Hybrid you will need the Draw-Tite Sportframe Trailer Hitch Receiver - Custom Fit - Class I - 1-1/4" # 24972 for your trailer hitch receiver. This is the only confirmed fit we have for the hybrid model. Then you will need a class I rated bike rack and unfortunately the Swagman XTC # S64671 is not rated for class I use. Instead I recommend using the Hollywood Racks Trail Rider 2 Bike Platform Rack - 1-1/4" and 2" Hitches - Frame Mount # HR200Z which is similar...

  • Recommended Roof Rack for 2014 Honda Accord Hybrid Sedan
  • When it comes to a roof rack for your 2014 Honda Accord Hybrid, I recommend taking a look at the Rhino-Rack ROC25 Roof Rack with Vortex Aero Crossbars, # RR32SR. This roof rack is not only economical but it is aerodynamic so it is quiet and the low profile, from-the-factory look makes this my favorite style of roof rack. I was not able to confirm the roof capacity of your Accord but I can tell you that the Rhino Rack RS 2500 system will have a weight capacity of 132 lbs when mounted on...

  • Will Trailer Tow Wiring Harness Work As Flat-Tow Wiring Harness for 2003 Honda Accord
  • It sounds like you are looking for a flat-tow wiring harness for a 2003 Honda Accord and if that is the case we have plenty of options but trailer tow wiring harnesses like the Curt T-Connector Vehicle Wiring Harness won't work. Instead, I recommend the Roadmaster Universal Hy-Power Diode Wiring Kit part # RM-154. There are unfortunately no plug-in-play options. If you already have a trailer wiring harness installed, this won't cause any issues for the flat-tow wiring harness but it won't...

  • Trailer Hitch for Carrying a Bike Rack on a 2005 Honda Accord Coupe
  • For your 2005 Honda Accord, I recommend the Draw-Tite Trailer Hitch, # 24787. This is a Class I, 1-1/4 inch receiver opening hitch with 2,000 pounds of gross trailer weight capacity, and between 200 and 300 pounds of tongue weight capacity. All of the hitches available for your vehicle are Class I, 1-1/4 inch hitches. This limits the bike racks you can attach to those that will fit in a Class I, 1-1/4 inch receiver hitch. I have included a link to the instructions for the Draw-Tite hitch...

  • Best Trailer Hitch for Bike Rack on a 2015 Honda Accord Sedan
  • For your 2015 Honda Accord Sedan, I recommend the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver part # C11681 over the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver part # C11496. The reason for this is because the Curt hitch item # C11681 offers more ground clearance so you do not have to be as concerned with scraping, it has a sleeker look while installed on the vehicle due to the shape of the crosstube which you can see in the attached photo, and it will take less time to install which is easier on you and your wallet...

  • What Tires Do Chains Need to Be Installed On For a 2016 Honda Accord
  • According to the owner's manual for your 2016 Honda Accord, only the use of tire cables are permitted and they must be installed on the front two wheels. If you do not already have a set of cables then I recommend checking out the Titan Chain Diagonal Alloy Cable Snow Tire Chains part # TC339DC if you have 235/45-18 tires or part # TC335DC if you have 205/65-16 or 215/55-17 tires. The Konig Standard Snow Tire Chains part # TH01221104 that you referenced should not be used because they do...
