Toyota hitch for RX350
#16
Do you think the Toyota Highlander hitch, PT228-69045, would fit my 07 RX350?
I ask because when I checked the price of the Lexus hitch, PT228-48045, the price is over $400 while the Toyota hitch is less then $400 installed.
When I checked for aftermarket hitches the same hitch fits both the RX350 and the Highlander. I wonder if the only difference between the OEM hitches is the branded plug.
Thanks

It is the exact same hitch as the Lexus. It fit perfectly and the wiring harness hooked right up. It is a class II hitch. The only difference is the part number and the logo plug, the Toyota service guy actually gave me a Lexus plug for mine.
I paid $275 at the dealer and installed myself.

This was my thought exactly. It is crazy that Lexus wants to charge almost $300 more for the hitch with the plastic Lexus logoed plug. Ridiculous.
