Can Eco Hitch for 2017 Subaru Crosstrek Work with Curt Cargo Carrier
Question:
I have a 2017 Suburu Crosstrek. Can the invisi hitch Item # part number 306-X7203 accommodate a rear cargo carrier like Item # C18151 or would I be better off getting a bottom mount non-invisible? Is it easy and worth getting wiring done for lights? I plan to use a rear cargo carrier and bike rack only. Also, are you able to recommend an installer in the Thousand Oaks, CA area? Thanks,

Expert Reply:
The Ecohitch part # 306-X7203 that you referenced which is a confirmed fit for your 2017 Subaru Crosstrek can be used with a hitch mounted cargo carrier like the # C18151.
You'd just have to move the panel on your vehicle to allow the carrier access to the hitch.
We don't have any listed installers in your area, but a decent mechanic in your area with a good reputation would be all that you need as hitch installs are pretty simple for mechanics.
