Towing hitch for TSX?

Has anybody installed a towing hitch on their TSX? According to the manual, the TSX can tow up to 1000 lbs, which is more than enough for what I need to tow (a small trailer). Looks like there are a few different after-market tow hitch packages available.

I'm also curious, since there are some bike racks that can attach to the towing hitch...

Would installing a trailer hitch void your warranty? Manual doesnt specify...and my Acura dealer doesnt install trailer hitches on TSXs. Hmm.

I have installed the curt mfg www.curtmfg.com my 05 tsx and use it for a receiver for my bicycle rack. Way better than those trunk mounted ones. I had it installed by a company called rack attack in vancouver. This is what I would recommend. Do not go to uhaul, they do not have the proper compatible model.
