Expert Reply:

I have two options for a trailer hitch for your 2004 Chevy Aveo 5 door hatchback. Unfortunately, both of the options require two holes to be drilled in the bumper beam. I have attached a short installation video for an Aveo 5. It is a different year, but the installation is the same so you can see if this is something you would be able to accomplish.

If you are wanting the hitch for a hitch mounted accessory such as a bike rack, then I recommend the Draw-Tite # 24741.

If you are going to be towing with the Aveo you will also need trailer wiring , # C59236 and a hitch ball, 1-7/8 inch # 19256 or 2 inch # 19258.
