Job is done and roughly $500 I didn't have to give the dealer. Instructions from previous hitch installers were correct except for the location of the park distance control connector. Mine was on the right and theirs was on the left. It took every bit of 7 hours to do what with all the unbolting then putting it all back together. Of course the 55 TORX bolts were a pain but I found some the plastic rivits to be as bad.
