I spoke to my contact at Curt and he gave me a way for you to determine the distance the Curt Hitch part # C11496 would have from the top of the receiver opening to the ground. If you measure from the portion of your vehicle where the hitch attaches to 4.6 inches down thats where the top of the hitch opening will be. You will then need to measure from that point to the ground to determine where the hitch opening will be.

There seems to be some sort of mix up because trailer hitch #C11085 is designed to fit the 2011 to 2014 Acura TSX Sport Wagon, not the sedan. The proper hitch for a 2010 Acura TSX sedan is #C11496. And it does appear to stick out a bit as you can see…
