71600009711 - Trailer Hitch Kit - (NO LONGER AVAILABLE) - ES#185392

Thanks! So what are the 2 items in the 4th image? I don't seem to see them in that ECS kit

Maybe when I get another tow vehicle, I'll pull the oem factory hitch off my X and sell it.

I'd really like one but admittedly my use-case (can you tell I am in IT?) is very limited. I'd like to be able to flat-tow my '59 beetle to and from the track in air conditioned comfort when I take it drag racing a couple times a year.....

Driving 90 miles on the interstate on DOT slicks - laying down 13's all day, (hoping I don't break it) then driving back home another 90 miles isn't quite as fun as it sounds.

They strengthen the unibody inside the X, mine had them already.

The items in pic 5 go inside the frame rails & are what the hitch attaches to.

Sigh. I really wanted to, but the $150 shipping on top of the price really stunk :-(

I'm an IT guy too ... props to all the geeks ;-)'
