Thanks for the pic!
So, if it doesn't use the port in the bumper... What is that port for?
I am looking at installing the Curt C11286 on my 2.0i Premium 5 Door for a platform bike rack, and I was really hoping it would be hidden behind this port. Do you have a picture of it from the side so we can see how far down it extends below the bumper? Thank you for the pic above. That will help me explain it to my wife.

Purchased from AutoAnything for $128.95. I think it's plenty sturdy, I would be more concerned about the body of the car if I were towing, I only use it for my 2 bike carrier. I enlarged the holes (see install pdf) probably less than a 1/4 inch on each end with a die grinder. No clearance issues or other modifications were necessary. I did it myself, but bolting it up would be much easier with a helper, the bolts can get pushed back into the channel if your not careful, it happened to one of mine and it wasn't very fun getting it back in place, the supplied fish wires are your friends. Very satisfied with this hitch.

Yeah I saw it on AutoAnything also for way cheaper but was kinda skeptical ordering from them based on the reviews of their site. How long did it take for them to ship the item after ordering? And how long did it take to arrive? If you didn't have any issues ordering from them I guess i'll give them a shot also.

First purchase for me from AutoAnything. I called to ask a few questions, the salesman was very helpfull, gave me an additional discount and said he would ship for free even if I didn't hit the $150 mark. So I ordered some more stuff. I think I ordered it on a friday morning and recieved it on monday or tuesday UPS.

My dealer installed my hitch on my 5-speed today. Even supplied me with a loaner car for the morning. Came home and did a shakedown tow. Handles 2 dirtbikes just fine...even with the A/C on.
Time to park the truck and v-nose trailer now. |
