What Is the Difference Between the etrailer Hitch and the Curt Hitch for a 2009 Tiguan
Question:
Hi, Can you please let me know whether there is any difference between etrailer part # e98906 and the draw tite part 75658? Both are 2 receivers for VW Tiguan.

Expert Reply:
The Draw-Tite, part # 75658 (no longer available), and the etrailer, part # e98906, are essentially the same receiver hitch and will perform the same. These are two different manufacturers that offer hitches of similar design, the real difference is in the product name and price.
Along with the hitch you are considering you may also need the following items.
Drawbar # C45010
Pin and Clip # PC3
Ball # 19260 or # 19247
Wiring Harness # C59496
Hitch Lock # 5201 or # 7683
