I do have a solution for you, however the Draw-Tite Sportframe Trailer Hitch Receiver # 24926 referenced in your question is only designed for and confirmed to fit the will fit the 2017 Jetta, but not the 2012-2013 Volkswagen Beetle Coupe, both Gas and Turbo Diesel models.
As long as your 2017 VW Jetta is not the Hybrid/TDI model, I recommend the Draw-Tite Sportframe Trailer Hitch Receiver # 24926. This Class I hitch is confirmed to fit your vehicle and will provide a 1-1/4 inch receiver opening with a tongue weight capacity of 200 pounds. I recommend the Draw-Tite Hitch because unlike the Curt Hitch that is also confirmed to fit the Jetta, Draw-Tite does not require you to secure all non-trailer loads such as bike racks and cargo carriers with stabilizing straps.
I have attached an installation video on the 2015 Jetta for you to check out.
