Default Trailer Hitch

Want to buy a trailer hitch for a 6th generation Honda Accord. (1998 to be specific). I'm looking to convert to a trailer hitch carrier.

here's what you want

http://www.hitchsource.com/classitra...h-p-25611.html

installed this myself in 15 minutes or so. most of that was spent jacking up the rear of the car, finding the right tools, and trying to hoist the hitch up to the 4 bolts myself. It's literally only putting 4 bolts and nuts into pre-existing holes (assuming)

Mine was just like this with the four preexisting holes except for that I had to enlarge two of the four. Took about an hour or so but wasn't hard. Save yourself the money and install it yourself.

This is where I got the hitch for my Element. They did a great job!
