Curt Trailer Hitch for a 2010 Acura TSX Sedan
Question:
Ive spoken with customer service several times about these hitches because Im confused. Your website shows the 11496 to be the correct hitch for a 2010 Acura TSX sedan. However, the 11085 hitch will also fit the car, but it sticks out a bit behind the vehicle. From looking at the two hitches, other than slanted versus curved they look the same. Is there anyway to measure the differences in length from the tow hook to the edge of the receiver? The reason Im making a big deal about this is because I ordered the 11085 and dont want to mess with returning it if the 11496 sticks out the same distance under the bumper. Currently with the 11085 the pin hole lines up with the edge of the bumper thus allowing the receiver to stick out an additional inch or so behind the bumper. Please advise

There seems to be some sort of mix up because trailer hitch # C11085 is designed to fit the 2011 to 2014 Acura TSX Sport Wagon, not the sedan. The proper hitch for a 2010 Acura TSX sedan is # C11496. And it does appear to stick out a bit as you can see in the video I have linked.
If you plan on doing some towing the correct ball mount is # C45521. For a 1-7/8 inch ball use # 19256 and for a 2 inch ball use # 19258. For trailer wiring you can use # C55502.
