Perfect for light-duty towing, this custom, vehicle trailer hitch receiver features fully welded, gloss powder coated steel construction. Drawbar sold separately.I was so excited to see they make a hitch and bike rack for my 2013. Vw beetle convertible .. We did have installed by an automotive place fir about $60 bucks but it was worth it .. We loaded two 26" mtn bikes and went two house from home .. It worked great no problem at all.. Very happy girl .. Now I can take my convertible & Bike to the beach ...
Arrived super fast with just the free shipping. The box was pretty beat up, but the hitch was fine!

Great
Your Curt 2013 VW Beetle Trailer Hitch Receiver arrived in great condition. I am very pleased with the simple, clean design of the receiver. Being an engineer, I really appreciate the use of the fishwire to install the 2 carriage bolts and spacers into the hole in the VW frame. This fishwire feature allowed your engineer to make a one piece receiver for the VW Beetle gas turbo & convertible that is a much simpler, cleaner design than the multiple piece design of your major competitor.
Love having a hitch on my Beetle convertible so we can bring our bikes along! We had it installed by our dealer, easily done.

Great!
Hitch is on a 2015 VW Beetle and used only for a bike rack. More than satisfied, works great.
Quality product! Installation completed within 30 minutes on my 2013 VW Beetle Turbo Convertible. Purchased to haul my bikes around and so far I am more than happy with this hitch.
I can't even tell you how happy I am that I can transport my bikes on my beetle! I've been taking the wheel off every time I went for a ride. It was getting old. One thing and why I gave it 4 stars out of five is that it bottoms out in parking lots, my driveway and a few other places. That being said, my car is low. I've learned to go into the driveway diagonal and it works just great.
I have ordered from Etrailer many times and always get great service and fast shipping. And after searching the net I find that they have the best prices.
Very easy to install. Only took about 30 minutes.

It works like its supposed to, pulls a small boat with no problem.
I have had the hitch with a 2 bike rack for over a year now. The hitch makes taking the rack on and off very easy. My husband installed the hitch n the driveway by himself without any problems. I am trading my 2015 Beetle in for a 2019 Final Edition Beetle and plan on taking the hitch off the trade-in and putting it on the new one.

The hitch was easily removed from the 2015 Beetle and installed on the 2019 Beetle. Would continue to recommend!
Easy to install, and looks good!
Very pleased - easy installation. Great for bicycle rack.
Order was for VW receiver hitch. etrailer sent wrong unit. Service department was excellent and sent correct unit that day. Installed perfectly in 35 minutes. Excellent! Company to deal with.
I highly recommend etrailer.com

The trailer hitch was delivered on a timely basis and installed by a mechanic the following day. I am happy with the product & installation though I have not travelled with it yet.

It is working fine, thank you.
This is a great product and fit perfectly on my 2014 VW Beetle convertible. Videos made it easy to install as long as you have the right torque to remove bolts (longer tool would give enough leverage).
I had to find a product that would fit my convertible and be able to use a platform bike rack to avoid scrapping bottom and this was it!
Fits perfectly on my 2017 VW Beetle Coupe. Had a hard time finding one that works well. So thankful for etrailer.com. They answered my many, many questions and shipped it 3 day select with no extra charge. Highly recommend!

Still works great a year later. Easy to use. I use it regularly with my bike trailer which I also purchased through etrailer. Highly recommend product but even more so the company.
As I have a Volkswagen Beetle convertible, I had resigned myself to the fact I would never be able to haul my bike anywhere...I was taking the front wheel off and putting the top down and putting it in the backseat...not a good thing...but now with the hitch and bike rack, I am mobile!!!...and thrilled!...thank you very much for making me a very happy woman...
This hitch is great. Easy to install with a jack to help hold it up. Perfect fit and works great.

We use the hitch all of the time. No issues, it looks nice, very stable. If anything its a little low so every once in a while it barely scrapes the ground when going into driveways or entrances, but thats mainly because our VW beetle sits low anyway. I guess if I could give input Id ask if that could be addressed on future hitches. Otherwise great hitch, well worth the money, highly recommend.

Still a great product. No issues, nothing broken!
Very sturdy. Installation instructions were clear and easy to follow. Had to take my car to a shop to install, however, as it was just easier to do it with the car up on a lift. Also, the mechanic had to support the rear suspension in order to prevent the necessity of a rear alignment. Still, after the work was done (and it wasn't expensive) the finished product is great!
Very solid hitch. Took it to my local shop as I could not remove the existing bolts, air tools make it a breeze. After putting the car on the lift the mechanic and I did the job in less than ten minutes.
Only change I would make, the two additional mounting nuts should have been same size as existing to reduce tool need.
Service from eTrailer was great as usual and the parts arrive right on time too. And the hitch mounted up in about 15 minutes all by myself. Might have been 10 minutes with another set of hands.
Make sure you have the 10" extension since you'll need it for sure on the 2013 VW Bug Convertible.
Fits perfectly, easy to DIY install, still solid as a rock and unobtrusive. Completely satisfied with the service and the product. Used for a bike rack because pretty much nothing else fits on a Beetle Convertible. Well done.
Had it installed at a local garage, they were done in half an hour. Hitch plus installation cost about the same as the bike rack I got for it.
Fast shipping, excellent packing, very good product. I put this on a 2013 Beetle Convertible to carry two MTB's. The instructions were sufficient and all the hardware fit good. Took about an hour to install; easy except for the precarious few minutes to install the back two nuts on the reverse bolts because they move. Thank you.
