Hitch receiver is centered relative to vehicle body. The bumper trim is notched out to accommodate the hitch receiver and connector receptacle. Dealer charged $1100 complete. Programming of onboard computer required 3 hr. this makes trailering compatible with suspension and transmission controls when a trailer is coupled to hitch. Based on other posts on this site, the labor required to install the hitch package alone is substantial. Cosmetics looks OK to me based on previous ownership of (3) Honda Pilots with dealer installed trailer hitch.
My single axle trailer has surge brakes only. I will be testing the installation when I haul my boat out of the water later today before Hurricane (or tropical storm) Earl arrives off Long Island by Friday.
