I have a 98 svt contour and does anyone know where i can buy everything i would need to put a hitch on my car??? I dont wanna pull much weight just a small trailor with a motorcycle on it... Any help here would be great cuz i'd love to buy it in the next week or so... Thanks Jason

I swear i've seen hitch packages for the svt's before but cant seem to find them anymore... I see the ones for normal contours all the time... Whats the problem with it being an svt will the exhaust get in the way of the mounts??? Or is it the bumper sits too low??? It wouldnt bother me if the hitch went through the hole where the grill is on the rear bumper... So anyone got any info here??? jason

Or is there someone that makes a kit for it or something??? I've never put a hitch on any of my cars so i have no idea here... "Hidden Hitch"??? Whats that just a brand name or something... sorry newbe to hitches lol... jason

Only problem is it needs the rear mesh off the bumper, and a small notch cut at the bottom to fit.
