From your description, it sounds like your 2016 Lexus RX 450h F-Sport does not have the factory tow package and you are looking for a wiring harness that will work, and we do have that, with the correct part being from Tekonsha:

- T-One Vehicle Wiring Harness with 4-Pole Flat Trailer Connector # 118255

This will connect to the socket in the rear hatch on the passenger's side like you mentioned, and then to the harness socket.

If you do not have the factory trailer socket under your 2016 Lexus at all, then you would need to hardwire in a 4-way, and for that you will need the ZCI Circuit Protected Vehicle Wiring Harness with 4-Pole Flat Trailer Connector and Installation Kit # 119250KIT

I have added a link below to the installation instructions for you to check out as well.
