How Visible is Curt Class III Hitch Part # 13530 When Installed on 2008 Lexus RX350

Question:

Im looking for a Draw-Tite for a 2008 Lexus RX350. I watched your video of the installation of a Curt hitch on a 2007 Lexus RX350 but the hitch still showed from the rear. Is part #13530 truely a hidden hitch?

The Curt Class III Receiver, part # 13530 will be visible from the rear when installed like the 2007 model in the video you saw. The position of the receiver and cross bar is dictated by the location of the attachment points and the structure of the exhaust.

Although they come from different manufacturers, the layout and structure of the Curt and Draw-Tite receivers are very similar.

I will provide links below to the install instructions for both the Curt # 13530 and the Draw-Tite # 75153 for you to look over.
