This video saved me $500 and gave me the confidence to do install the behind the bumper hitch. A couple things I used a dremel tool to do the plastic cutting. Worked great. and I used a milk crate to prop up one side while bolting on the other. Oh, I rented a torque wrench from Oreilly auto parts and returned it later that day. It looks much better than an after market one.
Found that the bolt holes in the frame of my 2007 Odyssey are pretty rusted and am having a rough time getting the bolts in. Soaked in PB Blaster and one hole just won't let the bolt get started. Will probably have to tap a new hole.
thank you in advance, great videos. Do you have a video for the 2015 model? Also can you please confirm the correct part number for the hitch? - last question, is light harness for trailer? Thank you!
+monybito We don't have a video specifically for a 2015 however the process shown is very similar. Yes the wiring harness would be for use with a trailer. You can buy the parts individually or as a complete kit. The hitch itself is 08L92-TK8-100.
All other Videos on this Topic ( Honday Odyssey Trailer Hitch installations)...show Nothing about removing the rear bumper and 'carving some piece of the trim'...so as to fit it?
Yes, this OEM style hitch! You don't see the typical bar across as it is hidden in the bumper. Most aftermarket hitch will expose more and you don't have to remove /trim the bumper.
It'a not as simple as it looks on this video... If your car is few years old, holes WILL have rust and it won't be easy to get bolts in. If your car was driven in winter on salt, chances are you WILL NOT be able to get all these bolts in. I wish Honda plugged these holes in factory so that they dont rust...

On ODYCLUB forum people say to tap the threads (m12x1 maybe) prior to attempting installation

That would depend on the type of hitch you are installing.
Yes, this OEM style hitch! You don't see the typical bar across as it is hidden in the bumper. Most aftermarket hitch will expose more and you don't have to remove /trim the bumper.

Yup. Exactly the problem I am having. I'll probably have to retap the holes.
Do y'all recall the tap size?
@@mnmurph If you buy the hitch, you can measure the bolts.
M12x1.25
@@mnmurph Yep, I can confirm that. And I happened to have that one.
Great video .Is everything the same 4 2014 odyssey ?
2011 and up is going to be different.
College Hills Honda what hitch would I use for a 2015 Odyssey? Thanks in advance.
@@eidrianespino2792 Maybe calling a honda dealerships parts department would have gotten a quicker response

Will a 2005 OEM hitch fit on a 2014 Odyssey?
I'm sorry but those parts are not interchangeable.
Podrían darme las medidas del corte por favor
WHAT ABOUT A FRONT HITCH ON MINIVANS.
Unfortunately this is not something that Honda offers as an accessory.

What are the tools required? Can you be specific on the wrench or socket sizes.

Thank you! This is the same instructions for the 2010 model as well?
Almost the same steps for the 2010. Those instructions are also available on our web site.
The video is great. Techno-pop sound isn’t.
Maybe it was hip ten years ago?
