Thule Cable Lock Recommendation to Lock Bikes to Hitch of Vehicle

Question:

I have a 2016 Rav4 with 2 inch Curt hitch using a Thule T2 Pro XTR 2 Bike Platform Rack. I am looking to increase the security of the installation by also installing a cable lock and would prefer to mount the lock to the hitch. I realize that Thule uses a proprietary anti-rattle/lock mechanism for the hitch and locks for the bike wheel clamps but feel that this is insufficient when carrying high end road bikes. Is any cable lock available that might fit/work with this rack, such that it will integrate into the hitch?

What you can do is use the Thule Cable Lock part # TH538XT which you would route through the safety chain loop of your trailer hitch and through the frame of your bike and you'd be set. This will lock the bikes basically to the hitch of the vehicle like you said you were wanting.
