Are Body Modifications Required to Install a Hitch on the 2009 Mini Clubman
Question:
is there any body modifications on my 09 mini cooper clubman
asked by: JOHN E
Expert Reply:
Yes. When installing the Draw-Tite # 75151 there is going to be some trimming of the plastic fascia required, since this hitch is a concealed cross tube hitch that mounts behind the bumper on your 2009 Mini Clubman. This may sound a bit daunting, but these modifications are really quite easy and can be done with a hole saw and a standard hand drill. This is the only hitch we have available that is a confirmed fit on your 2009 Mini Clubman.
I've added a photo to show the modification that is required as well as linked the installation video of this hitch on a similar Mini Clubman for you to have a look at so you can see the process for yourself.
