Trailer Hitch Recommendation for a 2004 Volkswagen Jetta GLS
Question:
This hitch says it wont fit on a GLI. Will this fit on my 2004 Jetta 1.8T GLS.
asked by: Joel W
Expert Reply:
The reason the Curt Hitch part # C11070 that you referenced won't fit a GLI is because the GLI models have OEM ground effects. The GLS models do not have the ground effects so the # C11070 would fit. I attached an install video for you to check out as well.
If you are looking to doing any light towing with your vehicle, I would also recommend these items listed below.
