Is Trimming Required to Install Trailer Hitch on a 2013 Toyota Highlander
Question:
Hi, I need to get a tow hitch for my 2013 Highlander. Does the install require me to cut anthing? I saw that the oem mentioned replacement fascia pieces included. But not sure if yours needs that or has it. Thank you!

When installing a trailer hitch like the Curt part # 13534 on your 2013 Toyota Highlander you can either remove the lower fascia panel or trim it so that the hitch will fit easily.
I attached a picture that I took from the instructions that show the trimming needed too.
