I installed a hitch on my CR-V, its a receiver type took about 30mins to
install,1K capacity. Element can't be that tuff.

Get out the owners manual, there probably is a plug hiden in the rear of the
Element that a after market, or OEM adapter from the dealer will plug into
the factory wireing harness, so to operate the stop and turn lights on the
trailer.

Look on line for a hitch, expect to pay at least $125. + 25 for a light
adapter plug if there is such a thing for a Element.
