Hello, Do you guys have a trailer hitch on a 2019 Honda Civic Hatchback Sport? Center exhaust I have seen it online but I can not find the correct hitch for it, its a little complicated because the exhaust is in the middle. Thank you

I may have another option for you, but at this time there is not a trailer hitch receiver confirmed to fit your 2019 Honda Civic Sport Hatchback with the center exhaust. The only option to have a trailer hitch receiver installed would be to have a local fabrication shop make one around your center mount exhaust.

If you were planning on using your hitch to carry a bike rack there is still another way by using a trunk mounted bike rack like the Saris Bones EX 3 Bike Rack - Trunk Mount - Adjustable Arms # SA803 which is confirmed to fit your vehicle, but will only be able to carry two bikes weighing up to 35lbs each and will need to be placed in the cradles closest to the vehicle on your specific vehicle.

I included a video of the # SA803 for you to take a look at.
