We do not maintain relationships with local installers for the hitches we sell but our hitch vendors, such as Draw-Tite and Curt, do provide a dealer-locator service on their websites. Many of our customers tackle the install on their own since we include hardware, instructions as well as videos to help.

The hitch I recommend for your 2008 Scion xB is the light-duty 1-1/4-inch Class II model from Curt, part # C12490. This offer a higher weight capacity than the same-size Class I hitch # 24815 from Draw-Tite, 350-lbs versus 200-lbs.

Towing a trailer requires the hitch, a ball mount, a hitch ball and a wiring harness if the trailer has lights. You can refer to the linked articles for more details.
