Expert Reply:
The Bully Black Bull Hitch-Mounted Step # BBS-1102 referenced in your question is designed to fit inside any 2 inch hitch receiver. The trailer hitches available for your 2016 Honda Civic are all going to have 1-1/4 inch receiver openings. If you would like to use this hitch-mounted step, you will also need to use a hitch adapter like the Brophy # HTAD, which will expand your 1-1/4 inch receiver to a 2 inch receiver opening that is needed. Also note that when using a hitch adapter, the tongue weight capacity of the hitch itself will be reduced by 50%.
An easier option for reaching the roof of your Honda Civic might simply be with a folding step stool like the excellent Telesteps # TE97FR. This is a lightweight, aluminum step stool that features a height of 12 inches and a weight capacity of 300 pounds. It has a foldable design that allows for easy storage when not in use.
I have included a short video demonstration on this product that you can also check out.
