Hello I would like to buy #e98913 I own a Toyota RAV4 2012 and I wanted to know what other parts I would need to install this hitch into the car? For example, the trailer hitch I wanted to know if I needed it and if so which one I could use Thank you

First let's start with a trailer hitch for your 2012 Toyota RAV4. For that you would want the Curt Hitch part # C13149 as it has been confirmed as a fit for your vehicle.
With that installed the etrailer 4-bike rack part # Y02476 that you referenced would fit and work well.
I attached an install video for the hitch and a demo for the bike rack that shows it being used on a 2012 RAV4 just like yours.
