Hello, Not sure if my last post went through (thanks windows). looking for an aftermarket hitch that with the fit/finish of the OEM. Is such a thing available? I like the cleanliness of how the OEM fits, I just dont want to pay the $500.

Any options?

None that I could find. In my "looking" all the third party hitches have a dog leg on the passenger side and either go over or under the muffler. With the OEM hitch you also get a piece of plastic that extends the bumper.. it is probably this piece that limits what the third party suppliers can offer. I opted for the OEM and installed it myself, my rational was if I go cheap I will forever be reminded of it.

Consider yourself lucky.. it is a lot cheaper for you..up here in Canada I just paid $575.. (includes tax) and this did not include the installation.
