Hitch Recommendation for a 2015 Honda CRV Carrying a 4 Bike Yakima Rack
Question:
I am looking for a hitch for my 2015 CRV EX. It will just be used for a bike rack which can hold up to 4 bikes Yakima. Is there one youd suggest? Also, is one more hidden than others? I am also interested in info on how to cut the plastic cover underneath. Thanks.

For a hitch that would work great with a Yakima 4 bike rack I would recommend the Draw Tite Hitch part # 75742. This is a great hitch with plenty of capacity that will carry your bike rack and bikes easily and will be largely out of plain sight when not in use. Check out the install video I attached for more info. There will be info there on how to trim the rear fascia as well.
I also attached an image that shows where the trim panel will get trimmed.
