Installation of a Trailer Hitch on a 1999 Pontiac Grand Prix

Today we are going to install part number 24659 and this also applies to part number 60833. This install will be on a 1999 Pontiac Grand Prix. So the first thing we will do is clear out the spare tire cover so we can get down to the trunk pan. Right after we ware finished with that we will take out these rubber plugs and there will be a plate that mounts over these. Now we will be enlarging the 2 existing holes in the bumper to the left and right. Hardware can be installed next using this channel right here. At this point we can go ahead and hang our hitch by the bumper bolts. After getting the hitch into position we can go ahead and get our bolts on the inside and fasten your hitch. What we will do next is install a plate that goes down here. To prevent entry of a mixture of exhaust fumes and water or what not.

We will go ahead and seal this off with some silicone sealant around the holes here. Then we go ahead and our bolts through. Next we will go back to the bottom and tighten everything back up. Alright now that we have our bolts installed we will snug them up and make sure the hitch is in alignment where we want it. At this point we can go ahead and tighten them up and give them their final torque. This was our install for part number 60833 on our 1999 Pontiac Grand Prix.
