Picking out trailer wiring for your 2001 Honda Passport is pretty simple on our end. The kit you'd want is the T-One part # 118360 which is a custom fit. I prefer this kit over the other options as this brand has the best repuation for reliability.
The hitch you'd then want is the Draw Tite part # 75092. This is a Class III hitch confirmed as a fit as long as you have the door mounted spare.
If you wanted to do some towing you might be interested in etrailer ball mount kit # 989900. It comes with 2 ball mounts; one with a 3/4 inch rise or 2 inch drop and one with a 2-3/4 inch rise or 4 inch drop. It also includes a 1-7/8 inch ball, 2 inch ball, hitch pin with clip, and a storage bag.
If the ball mount kit does not include a ball mount with the right rise or drop to tow the trailer level, check out the link I have included that explains how to measure to choose a ball mount to tow the trailer level.
