Perfect for my Honda Fit as it has a low carriage, the Euro shape gave me a few extra inches to tow a small trailer across the country from Oregon to North Carolina with no issues.



by:

Love this hitch. It looks and fits my Optima perfectly. I was really pleased to find a modern looking hitch to fit on my car. Very strong, solid construction. I don't plan to pull a large trailer with my car but this will work perfectly for my utility trailer. Very friendly and helpful customer service and it was delivered faster than I hoped for. Extremely pleased. Thanks...



by:

I dig the sleekness of the euro style ball mount. Works great.



by:

This trailer drawbar with the ball was just the right height and extension for the trailer. I am glad I got the one piece drawbar it is easy to store in the compartment with the spare tire. It is very tight when you first get it so you will need to tap it in out a few times with some spray lube to loosen it up. After that, it goes in and out by hand easily. It does come with the pin.

After a year of using the trailer drawbar wball on several trips, including a 2,600 mile trip, it is working great. Have not had any issues with it. I dont leave it in when not using it so it still slides in and out easily.



by:

This is a great trailer hitch ball. I like the way it projects out from the car and sits up a bit. It is easy to attach and remove (I don't leave it on the car all the time, just when pulling a trailer).



by:

It arrived in perfect condition and was exactly what I’d hoped for… except: I had expected it to include a retaining pin and clevis pin. Fortunately I had those missing pieces from a previous purchase.



by:

The Euro style ball really isn’t a good fit for European bike rack. Very loose so the rack sways as you travel down the autobahns,

While hitch accessories like ball mounts are designed to be snug inside the receiver sometimes they can be a little loose. It could be that the ball mount specs are a little small or that the hitch receiver opening is a little bigger. We recommending using an anti-rattle device such as part # RM-061-125 to help minimize movement of the ball mount.

It's easy to use , to put on and off.

beautiful shape ;)

WHEN I ORIGINALLY INSTALLED MY HITCH ON MY CX3 AWD I HAD THIS EUROPEAN BALL. I KEPT IT WHERE MY SPARE TIRE RESIDES. I TOOK MY CX3 IN FOR MY FIRST SERVICE AT MAZDA. THE SERVICE INCLUDED WHEEL ROTATION. I HAD THE WHEEL LOCK KEY IN MY SPARE TIRE AREA. IT'S BEEN ABOUT A MONTH, AND MY NEED TO USE MY TRAILER AROSE AND TO MY SURPRISE THE BALL WAS GONE. I RECOMMEND TO EVERYONE TO REMOVE YOUR BALL WHEN GETTING SERVICE. IT IS UNIQUE IN IT'S DESIGN WHICH I GUESS MAKES IT DESIREABLE TO THIEVES. THIS BALL IS A REPLACEMENT AND WORKS GREAT AS DID THE OTHER ONE. I AM GOING TO WRITE THE MAZDA DEALERSHIP ABOUT THIS AND WHILE I AM NOT ACCUSING THEM DIRECTLY, I AM MAKING THEM AWARE OF THE SITUATION. THIS IS TO PROTECT OTHER FOLKS WHO MAY EXPERIENCE MISSING ITEMS. I FEEL THAT IF I DO NOT INFORM THEM OF THIS, THEN I AM PART OF THE PROBLEM.



by:

Have I actually used the hitch and draw bar much in the past year? Not really, but when I do, I have complete confidence in the hardware and the wiring supplied by etrailer.com.



by:

I ordered both a Curtis trailer hitch and a Curtis drawbar from etrailer. The hitch I had shipped directly to my mechanic who reported that the fit was perfect and the installation very straight forward. The drawbar was shipped to my house promptly and although I haven't used it yet I forsee no problems.



by:

This review is really on the outstanding customer service provided by etrailer.com. This is he first time I have ordered from them and was very impressed. I ordered a hitch for my car. Placed the order Saturday night and by Tuesday it was delivered.



by:

Outstanding product and I couldn't be happier with the trailer hitch assembly! It installed exactly as advertised and at 60 years old I found it easy!



by:

Order was shipped promptly and correct. Products were exactly as described. I will use etrailer again in the future.



by:

Nice product, would rather use this compared to a traditional ball mount and ball. Looks sleek, has more clearance, uses a solid shank, and I'm less likely to hit a shin, because I wrapped the shaft in foam pad.



by:

Product is very sturdy, and exactly as advertised. Worked with the trailer receiver I purchased on etrailer. No issues.



by:

great fit just what I needed good solid hitch thank you for shipping to APO address



by:

Works just fine. No problems. Almost perfect height when attaching a small 5X8 trailer to an Mazda MPV.



by:

Great product, just what i needed for my Subaru Outback , the 4-5/8" rise was just right to level my trailer. Thank you ! E trailer, Good doing business with you !



by:

Have not installed as of yet but etrailer.com was fast on delivery even in difficult times, I will shop here again.



by:

Worked well, raised trailer tongue just right



by:

Ball size is 1 7/8 and works well. Did not come with pin. No Complaints. Perfect high for my ford fiesta.



by:

Good quality products, great instructions and details on how to use/install them and everything worked exactly as it should have.

Did not work for my application but is great quality

  • Trailer Hitch Recommendation for a 1992 Toyota Camry
    For your 1992 Toyota Camry the Curt Hitch part # C11225 has been confirmed as a fit and would work well for you. This hitch has a 250 lb tongue weight and 2,500 lb total trailer weight capacity. You would need to be sure to stay under these capacities and the towing capacities of your vehicle that are listed in the owners manual. To complete your towing setup you would want the # C45572 for a ball mount with a 2 inch ball or part # C45571 for a 1-7/8 inch ball. For trailer wiring you would...

  • How to Tow a Small Dirt Bike Trailer with my 2012 Subaru Impreza 5 Door Sport
    To get your motorcyle to your destination your are going to need to tow it rather than carry it. You are correct that the hitches and your vehicle can't support that kind of tongue weight. I have a complete set up for you that will get you to your spot no problems. Start with a hitch, the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver part # C11286 is a custom fit for your Impreza and has a 200 lb tongue weight rating with a 2000 lb gross trailer weight rating so that is more than enough for your trailer...

  • Recommended Trailer Hitch For 2016 Scion iM
    The trailer hitch we offer for your iM is the Curt Trailer Hitch, part # C11420. This is a Class l hitch and it has a 1-1/4 inch receiver opening. This will work great for light towing. Curt requires a stabilizing strap like part # 18050 to be used for any non-trailer items used in the trailer hitch. If you need a 1-7/8 inch hitch ball I recommend the Euro style drawbar, part # C45571 and for a 2-inch you can use part # C45572. for a trailer wiring harness you can use part # C56309.

  • Parts Needed For Trailer Towing With a 2016 Honda Civic Sedan
    In looking at your owners manual for your 2016 Honda Civic it is a bit confusing on its trailer towing ability. It does mention that trailer towing will void your warranties but it also lists including trailer tongue weight into your maximum cargo weight rating. If you feel that you want to tow with your Civic I recommend the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # C11604 as it is the easiest to install. You will not have to remove your rear bumper and fascia to install this receiver. The hitch...

  • Trailer Hitch for a 2011 Saab 9-3 Convertible Turbo with Single Exhaust
    Yes, Curt trailer hitch # C11326 is the correct hitch for a 2011 Saab 9-3 Convertible with single exhaust. Fun fact: for that generation, all of the motor options except 1 were turbos. For a super-sweet 1-7/8 inch Euro style ball mount use # C45571. Or for a 2 inch use # C45572. And for trailer wiring use # C59236. I have included links to the instructions for the hitch and wiring for you.

Talk about turning some heads! I checked with Curt and they have a Gold level installer at the Sears at the Lima, Ohio shopping mall who could install hitch # C11034 on your 2005 Chevy Corvette. A trusted mechanic or RV dealer with a service center could also perform the installation. Please note that...

    We do offer a trailer hitch that is designed to fit your 2014 Kia Soul, but the Euro ball is sold separately. The hitch we offer is the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver, part # C11419. This is a Class l hitch and has a 1-1/4 inch receiver opening. For a Euro drawbar with a 2 inch hitch ball you would want part # C45572, and for a 1-7/8 inch hitch ball you would want part # C45571. All non-trailer loads - bike racks, cargo carriers and so forth - should be supported with stabilizing straps...

    After reaching out to Curt on your behalf, they have confirmed that the Class I 1-1/4 inch Trailer Hitch Receiver # C11540 will work on your 2020 Volkswagen Jetta R-Line. They assured me that the only sub model that this hitch will not fit on would be the GLI model. Depending on what you're wanting to use the hitch for, here are a couple popular products I recommend getting. A ball mount would be good to have. Either a 1-7/8 inch ball # C45571 or a 2 inch ball # C45572. If you plan on...

    For your 2015 Infiniti Q50 the Curt hitch part # C11407 has been confirmed as a fit and would work well for you as long as the weight of your trailer when loaded would end up being less than 2,000 lbs total trailer weight and 200 lbs tongue weight. Now you would also need to check the owners manual of the vehicle to determine what the towing capacities are for it and stay under the lesser of the two capacities (hitch and vehicle.)

    Yes, you can use a ball mount that has a 1-7/8 inch hitch ball with the Curt Hitch part # C11158 that has been confirmed as a fit for your 2012 Ford Focus. For a Euro Mount style where the ball is part of the ball mount you would want the part # C45571. Or you could use 1-7/8 inch ball # A-80 and # C45521 for a ball mount.

  • Could 2010 Ford Focus Tow Jet Ski Trailer with Curt Hitch
    As long as the towing capacities of your 2010 Ford Focus (check owners manual) and the Curt hitch part # C11319 don't get exceeded you could tow a jet ski trailer. This hitch has a 2,000 lb trailer weight capacity and 200 lb tongue weight capacity. Typically jet ski trailers are much lighter than that. For a 1-7/8 inch ball mount you would want the part # C45571 or for a 2 inch ball mount part # C45572. For trailer wiring you then would want the part # 118457.

  • Can a 2012 Ford Focus Tow a 600 lbs Total Jon Boat?
    According to your owners manual, your 2012 Ford Focus should never tow a trailer and is not equipped to tow. Using a trailer hitch like # C11158 is ideally to be used for accessories like a bike rack. Your vehicle has a payload rating between 935 and 1,055 lbs so if somehow you fit it inside your vehicle Ford would be okay with it. I personally would tow that trailer (but not anything larger than the jon boat) and you would be operating outside of Ford's warranty and recommendation. Based...

  • Will The Draw-Tite or Curt Trailer Hitch Receivers Fit a 2014 Toyota Avalon Hybrid?
    Both the Draw-Tite # 36540 and Curt # C12107 trailer hitch receivers will fit your 2014 Toyota Avalon hybrid. I recommend going with the Curt # C12107 as I have noticed their finishes tend to be more durable. It is also made here in the USA. Curt recommends either the 2" Ball # C45572 or 1-7/8" Ball # C45571 if you plan on towing. The Master Lock Set # 3794DAT will allow you to secure your trailer to your Avalon while towing. I do recommend installing the T-One Vehicle Wiring Harness...

  • Trailer Hitch Recommendation For 2005 Mercedes-Benz C-Class
    When trailer hitches are made, the manufacturers make every effort to consider the appearance and try to make the hitches as inconspicuous as possible. Many times they are successful but it is virtually impossible to make the hitch invisible. If your 2005 Mercedes-Benz C-Class is a sedan the trailer hitch we offer is part # C11824. This is a Class l hitch and has a 1-1/4 inch receiver opening. If you have a wagon the hitch I recommend is part # C11680. This is also a Class l hitch...

  • Picking Out Correct Ball Mount for Towing Trailer with 2016 Mazda CX5
    I attached an FAQ that details how to pick out the correct ball mount. Picking out the correct ball mount will allow your trailer to sit as level as possible. Basically you will first measure the height from the ground to the top of the receiver opening on the hitch while on level ground. Next, you will measure the coupler height from the ground to the bottom of the trailer coupler when the trailer is on level ground. Next, you will need to compute the difference. If the hitch height is...

  • Ball Mount Recommendation for Curt Hitch for 2008 BMW 335xi
    With Class I hitches like what is available for your 2008 BMW 335xi, part # C11033 you have to go with the recommended ball mount otherwise the warranty of the hitch is no longer valid. So you have to use the part # C45521 which is what Curt recommends. It has a 2-5/8 inch drop and 3-1/4 inch rise.

I checked with Draw-Tite, EcoHitch and Stealth as they make the hidden receivers and none of them have anything to fit your GTI. The Curt does have a small 1-1/4" receiver that will keep the receiver up tight against your rear fascia and have the least impact on ground clearance. The receiver itself is rated to tow up to 2,000lbs with a 200lb tongue weight rating. Curt recommends their 2" Euro Ball Mount...

That said you are likely past any manufacturer warranties that would be voided so the decision is yours to make. You will need the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # C11200 to attach either the 1-7/8" # C45571 or 2" # C45572 Curt Euro Style Drawbar. You will need to match the ball size to the coupler on the trailer.

For trailer wiring you would then want the zero contact wiring harness part # 119250KIT which is a confirmed fit and doesn't' require any hardwiring. For a 1-7/8 inch ball mount you would want part # C45571 or for a 2 inch ball part # C45572.
