Trailer Hitch that Fits 2018 Volkswagen Golf GTI

Question

Question:

Hello, I am interested on the trailer hitch system you guys sell for a VW GTI. I have watched your videos on YT and am very impressed with the product. The only question I have is if you know if that system would fit on a 2017 GTI? The website says the 2018 GTI is compatible, and I am hoping my 2017 is as well. Thanks for your time!
