Recommended Trailer Hitch and Trailer Wiring Harness for 2015 Toyota Highlander
Question:
What trailer hitch woud you recommend has the best appearance fit for the 2015 Highlander? I plan on using the hitch for a bike rack and carrying rack with lights. Toyotas factory hitch looks more like an after market appendage and Im looking for a cleaner look.

I really like the appearance of the etrailer Trailer Hitch Receiver - Custom Fit - Matte Black Finish - Class III - 2" # e98844. I believe theinstallation location and the matte black finish of the # e98844 will give you the sleek look that you desire. Take a look at the attached installation video to see how it turns out on a Highlander like yours.
Since you also wanted to use the hitch for your cargo carrier with the light kit on it, you'll need a trailer connector installed on you Highlander. If your Highlander has the factory tow package, you'll need part # 56042. For models without the tow package, use part # 118449.
