Expert Reply:
No, the 2004 Acura MDX and 2015 Acura RDX require different trailer hitches. For the 2015 Acura RDX you can use Draw-tite trailer hitch # 75784. I have included a link to a video showing installation of this hitch for you.
If you plan on doing some towing I recommend etrailer ball mount kit # EBMK4. It comes with a ball mount with a 2-3/4 inch rise or 4 inch drop, interchangeable ball set, hitch pin with clip, and storage bag.
If the ball mount kit does not have the right rise or drop to tow the trailer level, use the link I have included that explains how to measure to choose a ball mount to tow the trailer level.
And to add trailer wiring you can use # 118569. I have linked the wiring installation instructions for you.
