Recommended Trailer Hitch And Wiring For A 2023 Toyota Sienna
Question:
I'm looking at the e56rr and c22ur and can't decide what the real difference is between the two besides a few bucks? what should I choose?

Personally, I prefer the etrailer Trailer Hitch Receiver # e56RR, because it has a matte finish which tends to hide scratches or dings better than a high gloss coating. With how low the Sienna's sit and with the crosstube being exposed it's almost a guarantee that you'll have rock or other road debris popping up and hitting it so it'd be best to go with something that can hide the marks and still look good. Installation is super easy, so save yourself some money and follow along with Brad's installation video, which I've attached below.
If you plan on towing anything that would require lighting then I recommend picking up the T-One Vehicle Wiring Harness with 4-Pole Flat Trailer Connector # TK69FR as well. This wiring harness will come with everything you need except for a mounting bracket for the 4-pole connector. You could just use the dust cap to hold the connector to the safety chain loops but I prefer using an actual mounting bracket like # 18144 along with # 18140 to have a nice secure location for the connector so it isn't dragging on the ground and getting damaged.
