All Hardware and Installation Instructions Included!
However you define adventure -- whether it's climbing onto the back of a mountain bike, hunting from the top of a tree stand or camping with the family a long way from nowhere -- CURT class 1 hitches provide a light-duty towing receiver to help you Bring It. Each is made to fit a specific vehicle, providing easier installation, a better fit and optimal towing capacity. Custom class 1 trailer hitches are available for a variety of smaller vehicle types, including the compact car, crossover, minivan and small SUV. This particular class 1 hitch is designed to be a custom hitch for certain years of the Chevy Camaro and Cadillac CTS (to verify vehicle compatibility, see the CURT application guide at curtmfg.com). Tested in accordance with SAE J684, it offers a weight carrying capacity of 2,000 lbs. GTW and 200 lbs. TW. It is equipped with 1-1/4" receiver tube opening to accept a ball mount shank or other hitch mount. This class 1 hitch also comes with all necessary mounting hardware. With its lightweight design and smaller receiver tube size, a class 1 hitch is especially useful for adding cargo space with a hitch-mounted bike rack or cargo carrier. They can also typically be used to tow small trailers such as a utility trailer, kayak trailer or teardrop camper (never exceed the lowest weight capacity of any towing component; i.e. the vehicle, hitch, trailer, etc). Though CURT class 1 trailer hitches are only intended for light-duty towing, we apply the same principles of quality as we do to the rest of our rear mount hitches. Each class 1 hitch is made with hands-on engineering, high-strength steel and precise welding. We use a co-cured finish of liquid A-coat, inside and out, and durable black powder coat to provide a lasting defense against rust, chips and UV rays.
If your vehicle is not equipped with wiring for towing a trailer, CURT custom wiring is the ideal solution. A custom wiring harness -- also called a T-connector -- is a simple, plug-and-play electrical device that plugs into your automotive electric system and provides a standard, universal trailer wiring connection. This is done using two or more vehicle-specific, OEM-compatible connectors to plug into the taillight assembly, eliminating the need for cutting, splicing and soldering during installation. Custom wiring harnesses are made vehicle-specific, and while they are not available for all vehicles, they do offer one of the fastest, easiest and most secure ways to wire a vehicle for towing. This particular plug-in harness provides a 4-way flat connector socket and is designed to be a custom wiring harness to fit certain years of the Cadillac CTS sedan (to verify your vehicle compatibility, see application info). It comes with all necessary wiring components to establish a reliable trailer wiring connection, as well as a dust cover to keep the connector clean when not in use. You have a picture in mind of your next destination -- maybe it's the boat landing at your favorite fishing spot, maybe it's a campsite that overlooks one of nature's masterpieces, or maybe it's the next big jobsite. However, turning that picture into a reality takes more than just daydreaming. It takes a solid connection and the right amount of power. CURT custom wiring is made with some of the most sophisticated technology in the industry and is designed to install with ease, giving you a long-lasting electrical connection for your towing hitch setup.

No. CURT 11900 is designed for 2016-present Cadillac CTS and CTS-V models only. Earlier model years are not supported.
CURT 11900 has a maximum trailer weight capacity of 2,000 lbs and a tongue weight capacity of 200 lbs. Never exceed your vehicle manufacturer's recommended towing capacity, which may be lower.
A weight-carrying hitch is designed to support trailer loads up to the specified capacity. CURT 11900 is rated for 2,000 lbs trailer weight and 200 lbs tongue weight. For non-trailer loads applied to the hitch, you must use CURT 18050 stabilizing straps.
Required tools: T15 Torxbit socket, T20 Torxbit socket, T45 Torxbit socket, 7mm socket, 8mm socket, 15mm socket, torque wrench, ratchet, 8-inch socket extension, plastic pry bar, aviation shears, and safety glasses. A socket set and basic hand tools are assumed.
Yes. A torque wrench is required to properly tighten the M10 fasteners to 45 ft-lbs in step 10. This is a critical safety specification.
Two people may be required to ease installation. While one person may be able to complete the work, having a second person is recommended to help manage the bumper fascia, bumper beam, and other components during removal and reinstallation.
No drilling is required. CURT 11900 uses existing vehicle studs for mounting. However, trimming of the rear bumper fascia is required using aviation shears.
Yes. The rear bumper fascia must be trimmed using aviation shears to accommodate the hitch receiver. For CTS models, the cutout should be approximately 2.50" × 5.00" centered on the fascia. For Camaro models, the cutout should be approximately 2.50" × 3.00" centered on the fascia.
Yes. The trimming of the rear bumper fascia is a permanent modification. Once cut, the fascia cannot be restored to its original condition.
For Cadillac CTS models, the approximate cutout dimension is 2.50" × 5.00", centered on the bumper fascia.
For Chevrolet Camaro models, the approximate cutout dimension is 2.50" × 3.00", centered on the bumper fascia.
Yes. The rear bumper fascia and bumper beam must be removed to access the vehicle frame studs and install the hitch. Both are reinstalled after the hitch is secured.
Yes. Both taillights must be removed to access the trunk area and remove the bumper fascia. They are reinstalled in step 12 after the hitch is secured.
The bumper fascia is secured by (4) T15 screws along the wheel well (2 on each side), (12) M4 screws on the bottom, (2) M4 screws in the wheel well (1 on each side), and (2) T45 bolts inside the trunk (1 on each side). CTS-V models also have (4) T20 screws connecting the heat shield to the fascia.
CTS-V models require removal of (4) T20 Torxbit screws connecting the heat shield to the fascia in step 2. CTS models do not have this step. All other installation steps are identical.
Camaro models require removal of (4) plastic clips (2 on each side) to access the taillight in step 5, and (4) plastic wing nuts inside the trunk in step 4 instead of (2) T45 bolts. CTS models use (2) T45 bolts and (2) plastic clips. All other steps are the same.
Remove (8) M10 nuts using a 15mm socket, (4 on each side). Set the bumper beam aside for reinstallation after the hitch is mounted.
Install the hitch on the rear of the vehicle frame using the existing studs. The hitch mounts directly to these factory studs without drilling or additional modifications.
No. In step 9, loosely secure the bumper beam with M10 hardware. Do not fully tighten until step 10, when you torque all M10 hardware to 45 ft-lbs.
All M10 fasteners must be torqued to 45 ft-lbs. This includes the (8) M10 nuts securing the bumper beam to the hitch.
Yes. In step 7, you unclip the motion sensor harness on the driver side to remove the bumper fascia. In step 12, you must reinstall the bumper fascia, which includes reclipping this harness.
Yes. In step 6, you unclip the electrical harness from each taillight before removal. In step 12, you must reclip the electrical harness when reinstalling the taillights.
Never exceed your vehicle manufacturer's recommended towing capacity. CURT 11900 is rated for 2,000 lbs trailer weight and 200 lbs tongue weight, but your vehicle's manufacturer may specify a lower limit. Always follow the more restrictive specification.
Non-trailer (wheel-less) loads applied to CURT 11900 must be supported by CURT 18050 stabilizing straps. Do not apply non-trailer loads without these straps. See the CURT catalog or www.curtmfg.com for further information.
Safety glasses must be worn at all times while installing CURT 11900. This is a mandatory safety requirement.
Periodically check the receiver hitch to ensure all fasteners are tight and all structural components are sound. This is especially important before towing.
The manual recommends periodically checking all fasteners to ensure they remain tight. A retorque interval is not specified, but it is good practice to check fasteners before your first towing trip.
CURT 11900 is designed for use with ball mount #45521. Optional ball heads include #45571 (1 7/8" ball) and #45572 (2" ball). Verify compatibility before purchasing a ball mount.

Yes, the Curt 56207 is designed for Cadillac CTS Sedan and CTS-V Sedan models. The harness connects to the vehicle's taillight wiring connectors located behind the taillights in the trunk (positions P3 and P4). Verify your vehicle model matches before purchasing.
The harness has two circuit ratings: signal circuits are limited to 3.0 amps per side, and tail/running circuits are limited to 6.0 amps total. Do not exceed these ratings or the tow vehicle lamp load rating, whichever is lower. Exceeding the product rating can cause loss of warranty, overheating and potential fire.
The battery connection must be fuse-protected with a maximum 10-amp fuse. Do not use a larger fuse, as exceeding this specification can cause loss of warranty, overheating and potential fire.
You will need a T-45 Torx bit (or T-45 Torx wrench) and a panel trim removal tool. The T-45 is used to remove the two Torx screws from the cargo-tie downs on the rear scuff panel.
Yes. Step 2 of the installation requires you to open the trunk, locate the vehicle's battery, and disconnect the negative battery terminal before proceeding with any other installation steps.
The vehicle's taillight wiring harness connectors are located in the trunk behind the taillights. On the driver's side, they are behind the driver side taillight housing (position P3). On the passenger side, they are behind the passenger side taillight housing (position P4). You will need to remove the trunk floor coverings and rear scuff panel to access them.
On the driver's side, pull back the felt trunk liner to locate the vehicle's taillight wiring harness connectors. Separate the connectors from the taillight housing, taking care not to damage the locking tabs. Insert the custom wiring end with the yellow wire between the separated connectors. Make sure the connectors are fully inserted with locking tabs in place. Repeat this process on the passenger side using the custom wiring end with the green wire.
Drilling may be required for the ground wire installation. You must locate a suitable grounding point near the connector, such as an existing screw with nut in the vehicle frame. If no suitable existing point is available, you will need to drill a 3/32" pilot hole for the provided screw. Before drilling, check for miscellaneous items that may be hidden behind or under any surface to avoid damage and personal injury.
If an existing screw with nut is not available in the vehicle frame near the connector, drill a 3/32" pilot hole for the provided ground wire screw. The area should be free of rust, dirt and paint before securing the white ground wire using the ring terminal and provided screw.
Mount the black converter box in a flat, clean surface that is out of the path of spray and debris from the rear wheels and road. Adhere it using the provided double-sided tape. Failure to mount the box in a protected area can cause loss of warranty, product failure, overheating and potential fire.
Route the 4-flat wire to the center of the vehicle. Secure the 4-flat to the center of the vehicle in a convenient, out-of-the-way location. Secure any loose wires with the cable ties provided. Install the provided 4-flat dust cover to help prevent corrosion.
First, remove all trunk floor coverings. Locate the two cargo-tie down fasteners on the rear scuff panel and use a T-45 Torx wrench to remove the two Torx screws. Remove the two plastic push fasteners securing the trunk liner in place. Then remove the rear scuff panel by pulling out on the bottom and then up.
All installation steps must be followed to ensure the wiring harness functions properly. Once installed, test for proper function by using a test light or connecting a properly wired trailer. This confirms the harness is working correctly before use.
The harness uses the following wire colors: yellow wire (driver side taillight connection), green wire (passenger side taillight connection), black power wire (from vehicle battery), and white ground wire (for grounding to vehicle frame).
The kit includes the custom wiring harness with yellow and green wire ends, a black converter box, a white ground wire with ring terminal and provided screw, a black power wire, cable ties, a 4-flat dust cover, and double-sided tape for mounting the converter box.
