The reason I went with the Curt was the max tongue weight is higher than the Draw-tite. (525 vs 350). I have a Curt cargo carrier and it weighs close to 80 lbs so that's a big chunk of the max. If your're pulling a trailer or just have a bicycle rack the Draw-tite is probably better since its more hidden. I didn't care about the hidden part as much.

What I'm looking for are the measurements of the hitches themselves, particularly those highlighted in the attached file.(btw, I did email Curt, but they ain't forthcoming with the measurements)
I'm looking at getting at hitch receiver for my JDM Toyota Harrier 2016 (Xu60 series). There are none available here so I'm looking at getting the hitch shipped from US.
I know the hitches do fit other car makes and models. The closest I found for my vehicle platform is the Lexus NX200t/300h.(hence I'm on this site)
Hope someone could help with providing the measurements so I use it to compare to my car's rear mounting area. The closest match would be the Curt #13214
thanks in advance..

The Curt 13337 hitch is specified for NX years 2015 through 2018, but the design is totally wrong for my 2017. The mounting holes on my 2017 are on the bottom of the frame rail instead of the side (as-required for the 13214 hitch).

Here is my hitch and hitch wiring topic.
This is the Curt 13337 hitch, showing horizontal mounting holes that don't work for the 2017 NX200t.
This is the Draw-Tite 75956 hitch, showing the vertical mounting holes that fit perfectly.

Curt 56268 and some additional info here. As I recall tapping into the taillight wiring plugs was kind of a nasty tight quarters exercise on the right side but it was otherwise pretty straightforward. Having the battery in the rear simplifies things considerably.
Edit: Now I see that just because it's a 300 no longer means it's a "H" so if yours is not a hybrid and you want lights when the ignition is off (rear power plug is ignition on only) then you're beyond my experience. Good luck!
