Hitch/Bike Carrying Options for 2017 Honda Civic Si Sedan
Question:
Do you sell a hitch that will fit a 2017 Honda Civic Si sedan center exhaust?

Expert Reply:
Unfortunately, none of our vendors manufacture a hitch that's compatible with the 2017 Honda Civic Si with the center exhaust. The presence of the exhaust would require that the receiver wrap around the underside of the exhaust which would place the receiver tube too close to the ground. It would also look pretty bad.
If you were needing the hitch to carry bikes, the only bike carrying option we offer for the Civic Si Sedan would be the SeaSucker Komodo, part # 298-BK1910-BK that uses 4 vacuum cups to attach to the vehicle. The vacuum cups have a 210 lb per cup pull strength rating, so once in place, they aren't going anywhere.
You could also carry bikes on the vehicle roof by installing a roof rack and using roof mounted bike carriers. You could assemble a Rhino-Rack roof rack using part # RR92XR. For bike carriers, I'd go with the Malone Pilot, part # MPG2103.
I've linked to product description videos for the bike racks mentioned above.
