I have a solution for you, but there isn't a directly compatible or solution designed specifically for the Thule EasyFold XT # TH903202. However, you could definitely use something like the Peterson Magnetic Tow Lights - 4-Way Flat Connector - 20' Long Harness # PE26UR if you've got a 4 way wiring harness on the back of your 2020 Mercedes-Benz GLE.
