i don't have a tow hook and i'm making a piece that treads in the tow hook location and at the other end connects to a different style tow hook
so i would need the tread size and the pitch of the tread
thanks

Why do you not have a tow hook? I have an 07 and I have a tow hook in my trunk... What happened to yours?

Thread size is a combination of diameter and pitch. Pitch is the number of threads per inch. Telling him the thread is 16mm or 22mm doesn't tell him enough.

A tow hook is probably a coarse thread (2mm), but there's a chance it's a fine thread (1.5mm).
