Trailer hitch and carrier

[Bosgarage57]

Anyone running a trailer hitch and carrier? It would be to haul gas cans, trash, yearly vacation bags with not enough room in the back with 4 people, ect. Nothing too heavy. Is everyone just using the 1.25 hitch, I haven't found a 2 inch receiver yet.

How would one go about hooking up trailer lights if I wanted to use a small trailer?

You can only haul 200lbs total on a carrier

You will only find a 1 1/4 receiver

I had U-Haul install mine, wires for lights and everything. I rigged lights for my bike rack.

I use tap a talk for this forum
I've searched and can't find a forum for just hatchbacks.

Does anyone know where I could look for an all make hatchback forum? Thanks !!

Trailer hitch

I know this thread is a few months old, but in case you or anyone on here reading this is curious and haven't found it yet. There is a fantastic installation video on Youtube regarding the wiring for lights. In the description, there is a link that will take you to the website to buy the wiring harness you need. On the same website, put it all your info of your sonic and it'll show you the available trailer hitches. You can do that, or have Uhaul just do it all, but honestly it is super simple to do it yourself. I'm not mechanically inclined one bit and I managed to get everything done in 3-4 hours. Also, that website is a good website to order from in my opinion, and shipping was quick. Here is a link to the video (it is on a 2015 hatch but will work on other years): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V_q0SaIGfUk

Also, I forgot who wrote the post about the bike rack lights, but I looked at that thread you made and those are amazing. I really like those and think that is an awesome idea.
