I have a solution for you, but the EcoHitch Stealth # 306-X7313 is designed for VW Tiguans and not the Mercedes Benz GLC-Class 300. Instead, I recommend using the Curt # C13290 which is a confirmed fit on the GLC-Class 300 and will provide you with the same concealed look that makes the EcoHitch Stealth such an attractive option.
If you're going to be using your hitch for towing a small trailer, you will also need a wiring harness, ball mount and hitch ball. I've gone ahead and linked those parts for you below, as well as some helpful installation videos that you may want to have a look at if you're going to be installing these yourself.
Wiring: Curt # C59236 custom wiring
Ball Mount Kit # 989900 (comes with 2 ball mounts, 1-7/8" and 2" hitch ball, hitch pin, clip and a carrying bag)

Is there a hitch for the GLC SUV that does not involve having to remove the bumper bump? And thus perhaps effect collision integrity.
