Expert Reply:
Trailer hitch installation on your 2016 Mazda CX-5 will require basic hand tools like a 3/4-inch socket and ratchet, and also a torque wrench like # ALL944001. The linked instructions tell you all the tools required to mount Class III Hitch # 76138 on your Mazda CX-5. I also included a helpful article with tips for an easier hitch install.
If you'd like an anti-rattle lock for use with this hitch (to secure a ball mount or bike rack) you might consider the Anti-Rattle Trailer Hitch Receiver Lock # 63201.
