    Rear tow hook or attachment point

    Next weekend I'm taking my kayak to the beach. I usually use my truck buy my wife is already at the beach with it
    I have Thule straps that attach to the fender under the hoodin the front and come out under the hood but I don't see anything on the rear.
    I have a tow hitch that I took off but with the apex exhaust it won't fit
    I've looked and don't see anything in the back.

    Anybody have any ideas?

    I'm leaving wednesday and welding is out if the question

    ThanKS

    The Accord comes with tow plates in the rear, mounted to the outside of the frame box sections. I'm sure they are primarily used for tying them down during transport. A strap or cord would have to down across the face of the rear bumper, then underneath to hook to them. If yours are gone, pick a set up at a JY.

      If you order the correct hitch, it bolts right to the frame. You unbolt the existing tow links, and bolt in the hitch. Two bolts on each side torqued to spec, about another 15-20 minutes worth of safety securing, and your good.

      Give me a second, and I'll post a picture.
