Hi guys, can I get some info please on how the trailer hitch is installed on the 2016 CX-9? Like is is just bolted on, does it need to be welded on, or do I need to drill holes somewhere?
I'm looking to get a CX-9 and get a trailer hitch installed. Not really for pulling stuff but more for attachments like a bike carrier or an external cargo box.
I do my car maintenance so I have tools. But I don't have a welder and I'm not comfortable drilling into a brand new car. If it's just bolted on I'll probably just grab the part and install myself to save on labor cost. But if it needs more steps, I'll maybe get it done in the dealer.
Also, I would think aftermarket trailer hitches would be more cheaper. Any pros/cons with going OEM vs going aftermarket?
Thanks
