Recommended Hitch, Trailer Wiring Harness and Towing Accessories for 2016 Acura MDX
Question:
Does the package include the wiring harness and connectors?
asked by: Graham
Expert Reply:
Because many folks use the trailer hitch as a mounting location for hitch accessories like bike racks and cargo carriers, we sell the trailer hitch and the trailer wiring harnesses separately.
The etrailer # e98840 would be a great choice for your 2016 Acura MDX, most of the hitch would be hidden behind the rear bumper except for the receiver tube.
If you'll be using the hitch for towing, you'd also need the # 118628 trailer wiring harness, the # 989900 ball mount kit would work well for you.
I've linked you to install videos for the hitch and wiring harness I recommended.
