LoL...sorry to laugh, but towing with a Camry (to me) is kind of crazy unless its like a jet ski or something. I apologize.

To "help" answer your Q, there are those two I-bolts that hang under the rear bumper. Those are used to hook up a Class 2 or 3 towing hitch. I am not too sure on where to get the hitch from for Camry's, I know they have some at Wally World but maybe not for us.

Anyway, once you get the hitch on just hook it up to your U-Haul trailer or whatever you are towing.

As far as the brake lights go for the trailer, on most cars if you look under the rear bumper you would see an adapter that is a "plug and play" type. Take the cable from the trailer and plug it right into that harness. The trailer brake lights will now work with your car's brake lights.

Like I said, that adapter under the bumper for the brakes are on "most" cars. My wife has the car now, so I can't really go take a peak for you.

Good luck towing, if your load starts to sway back and forth behind you, you are going too fast.

alright, i just checked for the harness that is supposed to be under the rear bumper, and I couldn't find one.

Maybe look in the manual or call the local Toyo dealer for more info??

Instead of towing your "junk" with your Camry of all cars, sell it. Or give it away.

Or call ABF. You load it, they ship it.

I thought about getting a hitch myself for my snowmobiles...then i lowered my car..and scraped that idea..now i have the truck for that lol..

but to answer your question...any Toyota dealer can put a hitch on and wire it properly for you...i was quoted i think 4 or 500 for the hitch and wiring.
