To the left and to the right of the hitch on your 2013 Honda Pilot is a cutout area for the install of a 7-way. For the cleanest install I would recommend you drill out a hole in that area and then use 1/4" x 20 x 1.5" and 1/4 x 20 x 1" screws and nuts to secure the 7-way like in the picture I attached.
