You can view the install instructions by clicking on the link provided below or on the product description page.
The install is pretty involved, requiring the removal of the rear bumper fascia and bumper. The hitch actually replaces the bumper beam located behind the fascia. The fascia would then need to be trimmed as shown in the instructions before being replaced on the vehicle. When trimming the fascia, remember the old woodworkers credo: Measure twice, Cut once!
