How to Install a Hitch on a 2019 Acura TLX
Question:
How difficult is it to install this trailer hitch yourself? I have some pretty good mechanical skills but I am not a professional.

The Draw-Tite Sportframe Trailer Hitch Receiver - Custom Fit - Class I - 1-1/4" item # 24942 you referenced has a 10/10 on our difficulty for installation scale. The instructions state it will take a professional about an hour to complete the install. I have linked the instructions and an installation video. If you do not feel comfortable after going over the instructions and watching the process then you should look in your area for a professional installer. We have a link to find local installers on the left side of our product pages below the pictures and videos.
Another option you have is to purchase the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver - Custom Fit - Class I - 1-1/4" item # C11535. This hitch receiver is also a confirmed fit for your 2019 Acura TLX and has a 6 out of 10 difficulty of installation. We do not have a video of this hitch being installed but I have also linked the instructions.
