Recommended Trailer Hitch Receiver for 2018 Honda Odyssey
Question:
I have a 2015 Honda Odyssey EX with a hitch. Will it fit on a 2018 Odyssey Ex-l? Thanks

The Honda Odyssey had a change between model years 2017 and 2018, so a trailer hitch from a 2015 Honda Odyssey will not fit a 2018 model but would fit up to a 2017 model.
For your 2018 Honda Odyssey, I recommend the etrailer.com Trailer Hitch Receiver- 2" # E98855 which is made by Curt and has a nice matte black powder coat finish. This will mount using the 4 existing weld nuts and the 2 access holes in the frame. This is nearly identical to the Curt # C13370 which has a glossy black finish.
If you will be towing with this hitch, I recommend the Curt T-Connector Vehicle Wiring Harness with 4-Pole Flat Trailer Connector # C56382 for your wiring harness and the etrailer.com ball mount kit # 989900 to give you different ball options and also different rise and drop options. I've attached an article to help further.
