Recommendation for Lighted Trailer Hitch Cover on a 2014 Subaru Forester with Factory Hitch
Question:
I have a 2014 Subaru Forester with the factory installed trailer hitch. Which light kit will be best suited for me. My Subaru comes with 1-1/4inch hitch. Please advise. Thanks.

The only lighted hitch receiver cover that fits the 1-1/4 inch Class I trailer hitch on your vehicle is the Skull with L.E.D. Eyes Trailer Hitch Receiver Cover # CR-018. If the skull design of the # CR-018 is not your style, then you could use the Flint Hill Goods Square LED Brake Light Hitch Cover for 2" Hitches # FHG72VR with the Trailer Hitch Receiver Adapter 1-1/4" to 2" Hitch - 6-1/2" Long # e43YR, This hitch expander will cause your lighted hitch cover to extend an extra 6-1/2 out from the vehicle. If this is not a problem, then the # FHG72VR and the # e43YR give you a square LED hitch cover in your 1-1/4" hitch.
I also recommend a hitch lock, # e98879, to secure the cover in the hitch and to deter theft.
