These dependable custom hitches are manufactured for 2009-2014 Acura TL, 2009-2014 Acura TSX, 2008-2017 Honda Accord and attach to your vehicle?s frame or bumper for a sleek, clean appearance. Each hitch also has a 1-1/4 inch square receiver tube opening so you can easily attach accessories like a bike rack or cargo carrier, or a utility trailer. DRAW-TITE Class 1 custom trailer hitches come complete with all the mounting hardware needed for installation and are backed by a nationwide lifetime limited warranty. So, whether you are headed out to the campground and need a place for the cooler, taking the bikes to hit the trails in the park, or you are tackling a DIY project (maybe some landscaping or a home repair), choose DRAW-TITE and travel with confidence knowing your setup is connected with the security only DRAW-TITE can provide. DRAW-TITE: North America?s Favorite Hitch.

Draw-Tite has designed custom-fit trailer hitches since 1946 and is one of North America's most widely fitted hitch brands. Receiver hitches use solid all-welded construction and low-profile designs that follow modern vehicle contours, install with minimal bumper cutting or drilling, meet or exceed V5 CSA and SAE J684 standards, and carry a limited lifetime warranty.
Draw-Tite has been leading custom-fit trailer hitch design and engineering since its founding in 1946, and it remains one of the most widely fitted hitch brands in North America. The company's stated approach is straightforward: every hitch is tested rigorously so that it performs well beyond published industry standards, a philosophy it markets as Tested Tough. It sits within the Horizon Global towing group alongside Reese, Fulton, Bulldog, Tekonsha, Bargman and Wesbar.
Custom fit is the defining characteristic. Rather than adapting a universal design, Draw-Tite engineers a trailer hitch for a specific make, model and model year, so it bolts to existing frame locations with minimal bumper cutting or drilling. Low-profile designs follow the rear contours and aerodynamic styling of modern vehicles, which matters more than it once did now that rear fascias are shaped and sensor-equipped. Construction is solid all-welded steel for maximum strength, and every hitch meets or exceeds V5 CSA and SAE J684 standards and is backed by a nationwide limited lifetime warranty.
The range spans receiver sizes and classes to suit different loads, from 1-1/4 inch receivers for bike racks, cargo carriers and light trailers up through 2 inch receivers for heavier towing. Front mount hitches add a receiver at the front of the vehicle for winch mounts, snow plows, spare carriers and precise trailer positioning.
The Hidden Hitch series takes concealment further by mounting behind the vehicle's rear fascia, so the vehicle keeps its factory appearance until a removable receiver is fitted. Each is custom designed per make and model for a no-drill installation that does not compromise ground clearance, rated for up to 3,500 pounds gross trailer weight and 350 pounds tongue weight. Matching plug-and-play wiring completes the towing system.

The maximum gross trailer weight is 2000 LB (908 kg) and the maximum tongue weight is 200 LB (90.8 kg). However, you must not exceed the lower of this rating or your vehicle manufacturer's towing rating.
No. The drawbar must be used in the RISE position only. The drawbar kit (part 3593) is sold separately.
You will need metal shears, a lubricant or soapy water, a die grinder, and wrenches in 10mm and 11/16" sizes. A torque wrench is required to tighten fasteners to specification (30 Lb.-Ft. for 3/8 GR5 fasteners and 50 Lb.-Ft. for 7/16 GR5 fasteners).
The hitch includes: 2 carriage bolts 7/16-14 X 1.50 GR5, 1 U-bolt 3/8 GR5, 2 spacers, 2 conical washers 3/8, 2 conical washers 7/16, 2 hex nuts 3/8, 2 hex nuts 7/16, and 2 pull wires 7/16. An optional Fastener Kit (24899F) is available separately.
Yes. You must lower the exhaust by removing 2 rubber isolators on single exhaust systems or 4 rubber isolators on dual exhaust systems. Spraying lubricant or soapy water on the metal hanger rod and rubber isolator helps with removal. The exhaust is reattached after hitch installation.
Yes. You must remove the heat shield(s) and underbody panel (if present) before installation. Save the panel and fasteners for reinstallation. The heat shield is reattached after the hitch is in position, and the underbody panel is trimmed and reinstalled.
Possibly. Check whether the spacer and carriage bolt will fit through the existing access hole. If not, enlarge the hole just enough to allow the hardware through. The manual shows two methods: using a metal file or inserting a wrench and prying. Enlarge the hole minimally—only as much as needed.
Yes, if an underbody panel is present. You must trim it to allow the hitch bracket to fit. The manual provides estimated dimensions (12.75", 6.00", 6.00", 1.00" cut), but these are estimates and must be confirmed before trimming. Obtain vehicle owner approval before trimming. After trimming, slide the hitch bracket through the cut until it sits in the cut-out region.
No. Do not cut access or attachment holes with a torch. Use a die grinder, metal shears, or file instead.
Only if additional exhaust clearance is required after installation. If needed, bend the exhaust hanger bracket (which is welded to the vehicle frame) downward to provide more clearance.
Use the pull wires provided (one for each rail). Feed the spacers and carriage bolts into position using the pull wires. Keep the bolt and spacer separate (not engaged) while inserting them into the frame—this makes insertion much easier. Leave the pull wire attached until the fasteners are in position. See Figure 3 for the insertion technique.
Hang the U-bolt on the tow hook. The hitch can be raised into position with the U-bolt in one of two locations (forward or rear), as shown in Figure 1.
After hanging the U-bolt on the tow hook and raising the hitch into position, feed the pull wires through the hole in the side arm. The pull wires are then removed once the fasteners are secured.
Tighten all 3/8 GR5 fasteners with a torque wrench to 30 Lb.-Ft. (41 N·M).
Tighten all 7/16 GR5 fasteners with a torque wrench to 50 Lb.-Ft. (68 N·M).
Observe safety precautions when working beneath a vehicle and wear eye protection. Do not cut access or attachment holes with a torch. If the hitch is removed, plug all holes in the trunk pan or other body panels to prevent entry of water and exhaust fumes. A damaged hitch or ball must be removed and replaced immediately.
Check the hitch frequently to ensure all fasteners and the ball are properly tightened. Verify that the hitch is secure and that no fasteners have loosened during use.
Check the hitch frequently, making sure all fasteners and the ball are properly tightened. The manual does not specify an exact interval, but regular inspection is recommended to ensure safe operation.

The T-Connector is a wiring harness that connects to your Honda Accord's taillight wiring to enable trailer lighting. It includes a black box module, connectors for both driver and passenger sides, a fuse holder, and ground wire with eyelet. The product allows you to connect a trailer's lighting system to your vehicle's existing taillight circuits.
Yes, the T-Connector is designed for Honda Accord vehicles. The manual does not specify which model years are compatible. Contact the manufacturer or your installer to confirm compatibility with your specific Accord year and generation.
You will need: a trim panel remover, a drill with a 3/32" drill bit, a Phillips head screwdriver, and a test probe. These tools are required to disconnect panels, drill the ground wire hole, and verify electrical connections.
The T-Connector includes: two T-Connector harness ends (one with yellow, brown, and red wires for the driver side; one with a green wire for the passenger side), a black box module, a white ground wire with eyelet and screw, two yellow butt connectors, a yellow fuse holder with a 10 amp fuse, and cable ties for securing the harness.
Yes. You must disconnect the vehicle's negative (-) battery cable before connecting the power wires to the battery. This is done in step 7 before attaching the fuse holder to the positive battery cable. Reconnect the negative cable in step 8 after the fuse holder is installed.
You must temporarily remove the rear threshold plate and partially remove the felt trunk liner behind the taillights to access the taillight wiring harness on both sides of the vehicle. These components are reinstalled after the T-Connector wiring is routed and secured.
On the driver's side, locate the vehicle's taillight wiring harness connector and separate it carefully without breaking the locking tabs. Attach both ends of the T-Connector containing the yellow, brown, and red wires to the driver-side connector. Ensure connectors are fully inserted with locking tabs in place. Route the T-Connector end with the green wire to the passenger side behind panels and along the threshold, then repeat the connection process on the passenger side. All connector surfaces must be clean and free of dirt before connecting.
Yes. You must drill a 3/32" hole near the taillight connector to secure the white ground wire. Before drilling, verify what is behind the surface to avoid damage to the vehicle or personal injury. Do not drill into any exposed surfaces. Clean dirt and rustproofing from the area before drilling.
Drill a 3/32" hole. This hole is used to secure the white ground wire using the eyelet and screw provided with the T-Connector.
From inside the vehicle, connect the black 12 ga. wire and the red wire from the T-Connector black box using the supplied yellow butt connector. You have two routing options: either route the black wire through a grommet and along the exterior frame, or follow the existing wiring along the thresholds into the engine compartment up to the battery. Avoid areas that may pinch or break the wire. If routing through a grommet and along the exterior, carefully avoid hot pipes, heat shields, the fuel tank, and any other points that may pinch or break the wire.
The T-Connector uses a 10 amp fuse. The fuse is installed in the yellow fuse holder provided with the product and is placed in step 8 after the fuse holder is connected to the vehicle's positive battery cable.
Disconnect the vehicle's negative (-) battery cable first. Remove the fuse from the yellow fuse holder if present. Cut the fuse holder wire and attach the ring terminal to the vehicle's positive (+) battery cable. Connect the other end of the fuse holder to the black 12 ga. wire using the yellow butt connector provided. Reconnect the negative battery cable and install the 10 amp fuse into the fuse holder.
The T-Connector uses the following wire colors: yellow, brown, and red wires on the driver-side connector; green wire on the passenger-side connector; white ground wire for the grounding point; black 12 ga. wire for the positive power circuit to the battery; and red wire from the black box module (connected with the black wire using a yellow butt connector). The yellow and brown wires connect to the vehicle's taillight harness on the driver side, and the green wire connects to the passenger side.
Do not exceed the lower of your towing manufacturer's rating or these limits: maximum 2.1 amps per stop/turn light (1 per side, 2 total), and maximum 5.6 amps for tail lights. Overloading the circuit can cause fires. Consult your vehicle's owner's manual and the T-Connector instruction sheet for additional information.
Wear safety glasses during installation. Before drilling, verify what is behind any surface to avoid damage to the vehicle or personal injury. Do not drill into exposed surfaces. When routing wires, avoid hot pipes, heat shields, the fuel tank, and any areas that may pinch or break the wire. Secure all wires with cable ties to prevent damage or rattling. Do not cut or pinch wires when reinstalling panels and carpet. Read and follow all warnings printed on the vehicle's battery before connecting to it.
All connections must be complete for the T-Connector to function properly. Test and verify the installation with a test light or by connecting a trailer once installed. For the initial test, reset the vehicle's electrical system by temporarily removing the key from the ignition. Use a test probe to verify electrical connections at the connectors.
Locate a flat surface in an out-of-the-way place inside the vehicle to mount the T-Connector's black box module. This placement prevents damage or rattling during vehicle operation.
Store the 4-flat connector in the trunk area when not in use.
Yes, the T-Connector (118596-037) is designed for Honda Accord vehicles. Confirm your specific model year with the manufacturer.
You need a trim panel remover, drill with 3/32" bit, Phillips head screwdriver, and test probe.
Yes, disconnect the negative battery cable before connecting the power wires. Reconnect it after the fuse holder is installed.
Yes, you must drill a 3/32" hole to secure the white ground wire. Verify what is behind the surface before drilling.
The T-Connector uses a 10 amp fuse installed in the yellow fuse holder provided.
Maximum 2.1 amps per stop/turn light (1 per side) and 5.6 amps for tail lights. Do not exceed the lower of your towing manufacturer's rating or these limits.
Verify that all connections are complete. Check that the T-Connector harness ends are fully inserted into the vehicle's taillight connectors with locking tabs in place on both driver and passenger sides. Ensure the fuse holder is properly connected to the positive battery cable with the ring terminal, and that the 10 amp fuse is installed. Verify the black 12 ga. wire is connected to the black box module using the yellow butt connector. Test the installation with a test light or trailer. Reset the vehicle's electrical system by temporarily removing the key from the ignition.
Ensure all connector surfaces are clean and free of dirt before connecting. Carefully separate the vehicle's wiring connectors without breaking the locking tabs. When attaching the T-Connector ends, be careful not to damage the locking tabs and ensure connectors are fully inserted with locking tabs in place. If connectors still do not seat, inspect the locking tabs for damage and verify the connector ends match the vehicle's connector configuration.
