Is Drilling Required to Install Trailer Hitch Receiver on a 2017 Volkswagen Golf Alltrack
Question:
I am wondering if Is VW Golf Alltrack predrilled for a tow hitch? Or do holes have to be drilled into the frame? Thank you.

We carry 3 trailer hitch receivers to fit the 2017 Volkswagen Golf Alltrack, Draw-Tite # 24949, Curt # C11422, and EcoHitch # 306-X7315. None of them require drilling to install. I've linked the install details for you.
They all install very much the same and have the same weight capacities. The main difference is the EcoHitch is a 2 inch receiver tube so it's compatible with a larger variety of hitch accessories like bike racks and cargo carriers.
