[@sparklander]

Nice.installation video. I really like the color.of.your MDX.

[@PIPSBURGHVIEWS]

Thanks 👍

[@kimbaldyga554]

Buy any chance do you have parts numbers for the hitch and the panel Thanks Kim

[@PIPSBURGHVIEWS]

Thanks for watching! Here are the part numbers I used. 08L92-TYA-200 $312 and 08L-TYA-200B $135 I got them from my local Acura dealer.

[@dustymisfit5665]

When I put my factory hitch on my 22 MDX A Spec did not require lowering he spare tire. Was there a reason for dropping the spare tire?

[@PIPSBURGHVIEWS]

It just makes it a little easier

[@MrF1230n]

Thank you for the part numbers on the kit - this is perfect for adding a cooler-carrier or extra cargo without throwing stuff up top and damaging the pano roof. I used to live up there and laughed out loud when you said to torque it dahn! $350 in parts beats what the dealer quoted me to add the kit, and this looks easy. Great video.

[@PIPSBURGHVIEWS]

Lol, thanks for watching! It was easy, I think the dealer charges $600+ total.

[@lifegoeson4554]

Quoted me just over $1k. Obviously passed

[@Pens4Life85]

At what point did he note the needed part numbers????

[@jamesbolkovac1710]

Hi there. The relocation kit for the door kick sensor…. Did that come with the hitch or trim part you ordered? We have then advanced package so I’m going to need to deal with that…. Thanks

[@PIPSBURGHVIEWS]

No, it is a separate part. Thanks for watching!

[@whitesteam6293]

Would you mind sharing links to all the components you got from?I cant seem to find fascia and the hitch you have with pre mounted mount for wiring. great install though.Looks crisp🙂

[@77abcdef77]

Are there nuts on the other side of those screws? If not, did you/should you add Threadlocker on those bolts to keep them in place?

[@PIPSBURGHVIEWS]

No nuts. The frame has threaded inserts. While loctite wouldn't hurt, I have never had a problem not using it. Thanks for watching

[@williamhiromoto6840]

Great work. I have been looking for the OEM part number for the hitch but seems to be hard. Can you please add the P/N for the kit you have? Thanks again and great work

@@PIPSBURGHVIEWS Cool, thank so much for the info and for the great video

[@ronlind1757]

Super clean install.. looks factory. Nice job!

[@PIPSBURGHVIEWS]

Thanks! 👍

[@mmahtnart8986]

Brian. What in the world are those, tuna can looking, exhaust things on each side before the exhaust tips?

[@PIPSBURGHVIEWS]

Not sure why manufacturers feel the need to put these on ever new car but this is better than the fake exhaust look in the German vehicles.

[@HieuTran-dv4de]

Do you order those part from Acura Dealer? Thank bro 😊

[@PIPSBURGHVIEWS]

My local dealer actually had them in stock, thanks for watching!

[@HieuTran-dv4de]

@@PIPSBURGHVIEWS thank you for your Video, Acura Dealer just give me the cost for hitch, roof rail, and roof rack is $2,831 .

@@HieuTran-dv4de wow!

[@HieuTran-dv4de]

Thank you sir, I just finished my trailer hitch. Your video help me a lot a lot. Thank You 😊

@@HieuTran-dv4de good job, glad I could help!

[@justintregre8959]

Hi - what is the height from the ground to the top of the receiver ball mount?

[@PIPSBURGHVIEWS]

16" to the top of the receiver

[@stanggang754]

Good video! One thing I wanted to say was that the hitch receiver cap that has the Acura logo, it probably would not be a bad Idea to paint the logo silver to maybe match the emblems on the MDX itself. I was just mainly saying that so you could probably see it better rather then it being black and not being able to see it very easily

[@PIPSBURGHVIEWS]

Thanks! Not a bad idea.

[@mmahtnart8986]

Rim it up Brian. Make it look goooooood (-;

[@PIPSBURGHVIEWS]

I may have to start shopping!

[@johnde2754]

Hey PiPs, that is definitely a nicely designed kit. You should follow through with that wire harness kit though. BTW - what was your COST on that hardware from the Acura parts dept. ? 💰.🔍. Many Thanks Yo ! 👍

[@PIPSBURGHVIEWS]

Thanks for watching John! Employee cost was $295 total.

[@michaeloliva3759]

You made that look a lot easier to do than it would actually be if I tried it.😂 l love the color. Is this a lease or did you buy?

[@PIPSBURGHVIEWS]

Well, it’s definitely easier with a lift but you could totally do it. We bought this one, hoping to keep it till the wheels fall off.

[@zipitysgarage7069]

Looks Great, it needs a Pipsburgh Views logo hitch cover!

[@PIPSBURGHVIEWS]

Good idea!

[@compuwiz613]

What is the torque specs for the screws of the hitch?

[@ranjit3o]

i think he said 18MM

[@AnNguyen-ky4do]

Thanks brother!

[@PIPSBURGHVIEWS]

Thanks for watching!

Long time no see. I hope you are well.

It's good to be back David!

Yup, it’s been too long, I had to come back.

[@Pens4Life85]

Did you delete my comment?!?

[@PIPSBURGHVIEWS]

I don’t believe so. What did it say?

[@Pens4Life85]

@@PIPSBURGHVIEWS Man I could have sworn I posted it here somewhere yesterday. Anyway, do you know the part # for the pin harness I'd need for a '23 MDX A-Spec w/o tailgate foot sensor thing (we don't have that and do not want it). Trying to figure out the correct harness number is impossible on some of these OEM Acura parts sites.

[@PIPSBURGHVIEWS]

@@Pens4Life85 I believe this is it. 08L91-TYA-200. They probably only make 1 harnesses and if you don’t have the sensor, you just don’t connect that plug.

[@Pens4Life85]

@@PIPSBURGHVIEWS I've been spending lots of time here. Looks like I need to buy a hitch, a shaped plastic hitch cover, a hitch harness, a hitch ball mount, and a hitch ball. Most of the OEM parts sites want like $180-$200 for shipping. That is simply outrageous.

[@PIPSBURGHVIEWS]

@@Pens4Life85 the hitch is big and heavy. I would just buy it from your local Acura dealer. Try to beat them up on pricing.
