I'm looking at something like this, like the way it uses the factory tie-down locations for mounting!

I installed a 1 1/4 inch receiver on my 3-door Yaris to be able to transport a couple of bikes. I never tried to tow even a small trailer because I could not find a location where I could tap into the rear lights.
Where is the most convenient place to get at the rear wiring?

Purchased from etrailers for 88 bucks + shipping. It's a class 1 hitch but it was easy to install and does its bike carrier duties perfectly. Couldn't be happier with the setup.

Thats a very good price, might have concider this one instead! I want to get a 40"x48" utility trailer set up for towing spare tires and small box for tools and such, just for going to local Auto-Xs and track events.

Heres an idea for us Yaris owners that want to take a few things with us but don't want everything taking up space in the car. This is also a good idea for the weekend Auto-Xer or Track Event junkie, who wants to be able to lock up your stuff at Hotels and some Tracks, I hate to say!!

Here's mine. Much cheaper ($1100.00 CAD) and lighter (260lbs without top,300lbs with top on). Not sure if available in the U.S. though. It is made by Stirling.

An after-tow inspection? Of what?

do you think this will fit to 2015 ( i will made some "fix") to avoid the reverse light.

I don't think it will. The other one mounts to the tow hooks and specifically says that it is compatible with the 3rd generation (2012+) Yaris. This one mounts to the bumper support bracket mounts and only says that it is compatible with the 2nd gen liftbacks. If you select 2012 or newer liftback it points you to the other one.
