  • Trailer Hitch for a 2012 Mercedes R350 BlueTec
  • Curt trailer hitch # C13103 is listed as a fit for the 2012 Mercedes R350 BlueTec models.

  • Will the SportRack Horizon Cargo Box # SR7016 Fit 2009 R350
  • SportRack does not list fit information for the 2009 Mercedes-Benz R350, however, we can determine if the SportRack Horizon Cargo Box, # SR7016, will fit based on the dimensions of your roof rack. This cargo box will fit most factory roof racks with a minimum crossbar spread of 23-5/8 inches. The crossbar spread is measured from the center of the front crossbar to the center of the rear crossbar. Also, the crossbars cannot be wider than 3-1/4 inches. If your R350 does not have a roof...

  • Folding Cargo Carrier Options for a 2010 Subaru Outback
  • The etrailer 14X60 cargo carrier # e98874 would work great for you. It has a clearance of 19-1/2 inches from the carrier to the hitch pin hole when in use and 9-1\2 inches when folded. So if your measurement is correct, this would work out great. The Outback has 4 holes in the underside of the vehicle for attaching the hitch, so it is not possible to attach the hitch in any other spot. Using a hitch extender would have been problematic. The hitch extender would place the carrier and...

  • Do the WeatherTech Auto Floor Mats WTW104TN Attach to Grommets of 2011 Mercedes R35TN0
  • No, the WeatherTech All-Weather Front Floor Mats - Tan # WTW104TN that you referenced will not attach to the factory grommets you have in your 2011 Mercedes R350. Instead, they are head in place by anti-skid ridges. These are semi-custom mats that fit your vehicle without any trimming required. The picture is meant to show the color and not necessarily the shape of the mats.

  • Can a 4-Bike Platform Bike Rack be Used on a 1-1/4 Inch Trailer Hitch on a 2011 Mercedes R350
  • There is a very good reason why no one makes a 4-bike platform style bike rack for 1-1/4 inch trailer hitches. It isn't due to the weight, not entirely, it is the fact that a 4-bike platform bike rack is very long and the distance of the second 2 bikes from the hitch receiver will produce tremendous leverage on the hitch receiver which can damage the hitch (I've seen it happen) and/or the vehicle. The best solution is to replace the 1-1/4 inch hitch with a 2 inch hitch, # 75470, on your...

  • Will Thule Motion XT Rooftop Cargo Box TH629907 Fit on 2007 Mercedes-Benz R350
  • Thule's 22-cubic-foot Motion XT Rooftop Cargo Box # TH629907 will fit on most factory roof rack crossbars as well as round, square, aero and elliptical aftermarket bars. It will fit so long as the spread of these crossbars, when measured from the two bars' center points, is between 23-5/8-inches and 35-1/2-inches. The other consideration for fitting a rooftop cargo box is clearance for the rear hatch to open. In order for the Sonic XXL to fit without interfering with full opening of your...
