For your vehicle, I recommend the Curt Class I Trailer Hitch Receiver # C11412. This Class I hitch is confirmed to fit your VW and will use existing holes in the vehicle's frame for a no-drill installation. It will provide you with a 1-1/4 inch receiver opening and it has a 200 pound tongue weight capacity.

I have attached an installation video that you can use for reference, along with the written instructions for the hitch.

Please note that Curt does require the use of stabilizing straps like # 18050 for non-trailer loads such as bike racks and cargo carriers. I have included a short video demonstration on this strap so you can see exactly how it installs.
