Currently I only see a 1-1/4" Receiver # 24972 available for your 2018 Honda Accord. We do have an Adapter # HT5R which can be used to convert the 1-1/4" to a 2" but this will reduce the rated capacity by 50%. So for the receiver it would then max out at 100lbs of tongue weight depending on your cargo load. I have heard of people either having their own receiver fabricated or altering a receiver with a different Tube # 325-GH-002. But understand this will void any warranty from the receiver manufacturer and you will lose some additional ground clearance.
The Wiring Harness # C56402 will give you a 4-way flat connector. This is the connector commonly used on small trailers you might tow and they can be used with Auxiliary Lights # C53201 if you have a large hitch mounted accessory which impairs the view of your tail lights.
