I purchased a Yakima Roc-N-Gate to attach to my round tube hitch. You can check it out at www.yakima.com. It is a high end carrier with all the bells and whistles. Carries 4 bikes and is rock solid. It is pricey though. I paid $399 last year.

I have a Rhode Gear unit that holds 3 bikes for my 2" square mount. Got it at Bike Line, but cannot find the model for you.
How do you have a round opening. I have the std. Lexus factory hitch.

M1ikey00, ok, the RhodeG was about $150.00 or so. It does not have sufficient extension to allow the hatch to open if the rack is upright, however, it does have a quick disconnect bolt that allows the upright portion of the rack to swing down to ground level. This has worked very well for us and appears to be solid on square steel which fits directly into the hitch. I would recommend it. If anyone really weants the model let me know, I will dig it out.
Ours is a few years old and RG was using some sort of rubber for the straps, which hold the bikes to the rack, that disintegrated quickly, cracking and are about ready to break after just 3 years or so. I ordered new straps that are made of a better compound or so it seems, time will tell. . ....
