The hitch did not come in the original pakaging. All of the parts were taped to it and the pin it was supposed to come with was missing.

Build quality is really good. Haven’t tested it out with large trailers, but it can hold a moped easily on a carrying rack. Installing was simple enough. It’s also hidden nice some the side.

This hitch fits perfectly and is easy to install.

Installed on my 2005 VW Beetle per instructions only problem encountered was the 1/2” bolt threads stripped prior to achieving the 126ftlb torque as required by installation instructions. Very difficult to remove stripped bolt.

Installation was pretty straight forward & easy. However, I found the receiver to be larger than necessary. I have a Draw-Tite hitch on my other VW Beetle. The hitch is made by Reese. It fits snugly into the Draw-tite, but fits very sloppy into the Curt receiver. I tried two other brands of hitches and the same thing. They fit snugly into the Draw-tite, but a very sloppy fit into the Curt receiver. I would NOT recommend this hitch to anyone.

It was a pain to mount but that is probably VW's fault - they just don't want you to mount anything there! Hitch works great and was a good fit.

I have 3 of these installed on our Golf and Beetle fleet. Works great for light trailers (ours is 4 x 6) and hitch mounted bike racks. We routinely tow large bulky items (trailer rated at 2 tons but we keep it at around 800 lbs max. for safety) and it is rock solid. Can't beat Curt for great quality and easy mounting with excellent hardware.

easy to install. Even though it said you needed to remove muffler to drill two holes I was able to do drill holes with it on.

Put this hitch on my 2003 gti vr6. I was a little concerned with clearance for my magnaflow exhaust but it was perfectly fine. Install was easy, instructions were great, had it completely installed in under an hour. My only complaint is that the bolt that matches up with the flange nut is a little short, had to have the hole COMPLETELY clean in order to grab the threads. Just towed my motorcycle ~500 miles with it and the hitch held up with no problems.

This is my second hitch on a VW Beetle. Most people look at me cross-eyed as I drive by them pulling my 14 foot boat , motor and trailer.. full of gear. Works like a dream! The install of this hitch is pretty straight forward. Allow yourself a bit of time how ever. Take your time and get it lined up correctly and it fits perfect! You have to drill a few holes in your tire area of the trunk yet I used a right angle drill and it was a breeze. I have to say.. I love it.! One other good point about it. It also acts as a bit of a bumper if someone taps into you. Ask my wife.. I installed one on her Bug and it has saved her several times.
