Tow Hook Thread Size for Honda Civic
The thread size for the tow hook spot on a Honda Civic varies depending on the specific model and generation. For the 10th generation Honda Civic, there is no factory tow hook option behind the front grill/cover, but EVS makes an adapter for an external front tow hook. The front tow hook is embedded in the chassis and is on the passenger-side near the suspension components. As for the rear, the 10th gen Honda Civic comes with a factory tow hook in its tool kit.
For the specific thread size, the search results did not provide a direct answer for the thread size of the tow hook spot on a Honda Civic. Therefore, I recommend reaching out to a Honda dealership or a trusted automotive parts store for the specific thread size information for the Honda Civic tow hook.
