I checked with BavAuto today and the hitch they sell is the Curt one. And they don't even have it in stock. I am not keen on the Curt one either. Seems I am in a pinch here. Dang! Also, even BavAuto takes a week to two weeks as they need to order it from Curt first.
The Curt hitches require you to drill the car, they require you to splice into the tails lights and you'll also have to trim your bumper since they are not OEM design and no allowance for the complete bumper cover re-install.
I talked with the Dealer again today. Not a single Dealer in North America has a hitch kit in stock.... so I am wondering about that eBay ad.
EDIT:
OMG! I found one at a local dealer !!!! Apparently, the internet DOES lie now and then. Best advice is to call around dealers. The going price is $495 + Tax and it is the complete kit with harness and all. I hope it has the bolts too though.
If you are in LA - I think Century West has it in stock.
If you are NJ - Bloomfield has 7 in stock!
