OK, do they make a hitch for the SVT? I need to trailer my bike to Deals gap and it is the only way..so where do I get a hitch?

what about a hitch for the WRX?

for the SVT, I think there are some generic ones you can fit, and have the square reciever fit through a cutout in the "mesh" in the rear fascia.
try Draw-tite, they would be a likely source.


It's all about balance.

Well....The Rex is a lease..so I will not take it all the way down there, how do I get ahold of Draw tite?

If it goes through the mesh it is no big deal, I just have to do this with the SVT and not the Rex....

the one for the regular contour is the one you need. They say no for the SVT because of the rear bumper. If you cut through the bumper mesh (you may have mod. the mount for height to get it to go through the mesh) for the hitch, you should be good (though it will look funny)
I know it has been done before, I've seen it.

I have seen pictures on here (taken down later) of exactly what Brian said. A hole cut into the rear mesh, but it looked functional.

I have seen a weird looking one that is through the plastic (under the mesh) You had to cut the plastic out to make it work.

Good luck.

Their was one in the classifieds for cheap. My dad has a Reese on his Mystique. You can order them at Wally World because they will likely not have one in stock.

Hey judge, let me know where you get it. I need one two, maybe they'll cut a deal. In in detroit again if you find a hookup soon. I have to drive down to Memphis to pick up a CR80 race bike next weekend and my contour is alot friendlier to the ass than my work truck.
