Is Drilling Required On The Curt Class I Trailer Hitch Receiver
Question:
I am looking at one of your hitches for my 2013 Accord and wanted to make sure there is no drilling required.
asked by: Andrew C
Expert Reply:
The Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # C11681 is a bolt-on installation with no welding or drilling required.
To complete your towing setup, I recommend the Curt Class II Drawbar # C45521, # F-4 Pin and clip, and 2 inch Ball # A-82.
For trailer wiring, if you have LED tail lights use # C56173 and if you have traditional lights use # 118596. These will plug into your factory wiring and pull power directly from your vehicle battery.
I have the complete install video linked to this answer page.
