Installation instructions provided, along with youtube videos, helped greatly. I use the towing equipment frequently each week and have received positive remarks from others interested in similar towing arrangements. Installation ended up being easier (and less scary!) than anticipated.

Thanks for taking the time for the great review David! This will be very helpful to others looking to install this, it is always better coming from a fellow consumer. What are you mainly towing with your set-up?

by:
The only trailer kit that would fit on a BMW (convertible). I love trailering my small sailboat with that car and the towing kit is beautifully made. It is removeable (so you can't see that there is a hitch on the car) but it is so elegant and well made that I leave it showing! It is expensive though.
by:
Delivery very good,cable with flat connector too short, it didn't allow me on 18 inches loop, rest of the parts okay. Thanks

Installation was quick and easy. Instructions were fairly straight forward which was a plus
by:
Wiring works like a Charm didn’t came with instructions that why the 3 stars.
by:
2019 Mercedes-Benz E-Class
the instruction delivered with the package did not match the car it was ordered for. We had to figure it out for two hours how to connect. The overall quality of the product is excellent
by:
2023 Volvo XC60. I bought this and the hitch separately. If you're not used to doing these, like me, the install was actually a fun and easy project, if you take your time to understand how things come apart/go together. I won't know if I did it all right, though, until I have the dealer program the vehicle to accept the new accessory. One pic shows white,braided wire to grounding nut. Another shows where I affixed the module. And another shows the black plug that is to be removed for where the wires will exit the vehicle.
by:
Exactly as advertised. Great instructions specific to my vehicle
by:
This is fabulous! We've been using it for a basket to haul small machinery. Love this thing!!! So easy to have it be discreet when wanted as well.

Its still fabulous after a year! We love this!! Super sturdy. Thank you!

by:
Went on without a hitch! Pun intended. :)

For real though, it's a great kit. I do wonder though, since the 2022 model 3 comes with a towing cable connector already, is the wiring controller necessary?
by:
2021 Audi A4
Worked fine but wiring came with no instructions (got from stealth website) and the thickness of the wires was not compatible with the connectors without a lot of effort to force the splice. Wires much thicker than car wires. Hitch part works great.

I havent used it much h but I love that it is hidden under the car and not the eyesore that the previous stealth socket was. I have towed ni Ely with it when needed and I can use the receptacle if I need to use a hitch mounted bike rack. Having a few wiring issues. But thats it.

by:
I was looking for a hitch that I could tow my motorcycle trailer behind my E92 3 Series 335i. This stealth hitch has the removable quick mount receiver and ball adapter, so that it wouldn’t be an eye sore when I wasn’t towing my bikes to the track.
It works great! I was thinking it would be a loose fit, but the hitch is rock solid! I’ve never pulled more than 1K since the car is so light, but I’m sure it wouldn’t be the hitch that would go out.
It is pricey, but you certainly get what you pay for! Minimal cutting required to the bottom side of the bumper, and it goes in place of the bumper plate. You can only see about 1/8” of the machined receiver under the bumper.
Great product if you need to tow something light with your 3 series!
by:
Great look, no ugly hitch to look at. HIGHEST quality products!
by:
Product works great. Only challenge was determining the correct turn signal and marker light wires without owning a multimeter. However, a couple paper clips, lead wires, and 12v bulb helped confirm the correct wires to splice into.

Note: The wire to pin 1 is for left/right directional. The wire to passenger side pin 4 is for the marker lights.

For connecting the wiring to power, remove the spare tire bracket to access the additional positive battery connections. Attach the black power line here instead of the battery post. For the ground wire, there is a collection of brown ground wires fastened with a crown nut towards the rear wheel well in the rear passenger side fuse compartment area. Attach the ground wire here instead of directly to the negative battery post.

I tested the wiring multiple times through the installation process to ensure all was good before closing it all back up again.
by:
You should have seen the macho Marina crowd as they watched me back my BMW 640 down the launch ramp with a 16 foot boat trailer hanging off the back. Guys were down on their knees looking under the rear of the car. But the best part was when I dropped the hitch and put it in the trunk! Lot' of OOOs and Ahaaas.
by:
I am generally very happy with the design and function of this hitch. Unfortunately the paint started peeling off and rusting within weeks of installation. I keep my cars a long time so I will need to put extra effort into maintaining over time.
by:
The installation instructions were not very clear. The reinstallation of the bumper trim was very hard and to have another person help. That should be included on the instructions to understand the process and have another person available. Bumper trim was very hard to place back on correctly and I still have an edge that is not flush.
by:
Excellent hitch, instructions and videos were easy to follow no issues. Cant wait to install my bike rack and tow something

Hitch worked perfectly and wiring did also. Great fitment.
by:
Fast shipping. Great instructions. Lots of good videos. No problem installing the hitch. Love it.
by:
Etrailer is great, knowledgeable, parts in stock and fast shipping.

Stealth should be ashamed. First I ordered the kit with a two inch receiver. To my great surprise the kit did NOT include attachment points for safety chains. For these I had to order another kit. When it was installed their attachment points did not fit! Shame on Stealth Hitches! Shameless marketing designed to fleece consumers combined with poor fit & QA.

Hey Kenneth. I'm sorry for any confusion our site has caused you. I did see that you ordered part # SH47QR. Stealth Hitch receivers are only rated for tongue bearing applications. Such as a bike rack or cargo basket. For all towing applications you would need to get the towing kit that is specific for the year, make, and model you need it for. If you need anything else, please let me know.

Product was exactly as advertised - works perfect & was also recommended by my local BMW Dealership. Customer service form Alex (x72965) was exceptional!

  • Installation of Tow Kit Wiring Harness for 2020 Porsche Macan
    Since you said the tow kit I'm assuming you are referring to the Towing Kit w/ Ball Mount and Trailer Wiring for Stealth Hitches # SH79FR that comes with the # SH84FRT. We don't have an installation video for this one but the instructions can be found below and on the full product page for the # SH84FR. It looks like the instruction link from the # SH84FRT is broken right now so it would be best to get it off of the regular hitches product page. Installation of the wiring kit begins on page 9.

  • Trailer Hitch Confirmed to Fit a 2020 Porsche Macan S Model
    I do have another option for you, but your local installer is correct that the Draw-Tite Max-Frame Trailer Hitch Receiver # 75940 excludes the S model of the Porsche Macan. The only hitch that we have that fits the S model of the 2020 Porsche Macan is the Stealth Hitches Hidden Rack Receiver # SH84FR. The Stealth Hitches Hidden Rack Receiver # SH84FR includes a removable receiver that allows you to have a fully concealed look when removed. The removable receiver will allow you to carry...

  • Can The Stealth Hitches Receiver For a 2018 Porsche Macan Be Installed as a DIY Installation?
    Installing the Stealth Hitches Hidden Rack Receiver # SH84FR on your 2018 Porsche Macan will require removal of the rear fascia. Depending on your skill/comfort level this will determine on how easy of an installation you will have. The receiver itself is rated for a 2 hour installation for an experienced technician who has experience installing this type of receiver. For a DIY installation you would likely be looking at closer to a 4 hour install time. I have linked the installation instructions...

  • 2 Trailer Hitch Receiver Confirmed to fit a 2023 Porsche Macan T and Carry 2 E-Bikes
    I recommend using the Stealth Hitches Hidden Rack Receiver # SH84FR which is confirmed to fit your 2023 Porsche Macan T. This will give you a 2" removable receiver so you will not have the end of the receiver exposed like you get with the Draw-Tite # 75940 when you are not carrying your bikes. If you feel you might also tow a trailer you can get the Kit # SH84FRT which I see you found as it includes the Towing Kit # SH79FR. The towing kit includes a ball mount and the wiring needed to operate...

  • Can I Tow a Bass Boat With the Stealth Hitches Hidden Rack Receiver on a 2016 Porsche Macan
    As long as your 2016 Porsche Macan is not a GTS model, you can use the Stealth Hitches Hidden Trailer Hitch Receiver w/ Towing Kit - Custom Fit - 2" # SH84FRT to tow your bass boat. You will need this version of the stealth hitch because the other model is just for bike racks or cargo carriers. Your 2016 Porsche Macan has a towing capacity of 4409 lbs and the stealth hitches have a 600 lb maximum tongue weight and 6000 lb maximum trailer weight. With your trailer and boat at 3200 lbs...

  • Complete towing Kit for the Stealth Hitches Hidden Rack Receiver on a 2019 Porsche Macan
    Yes that's correct Wenbin. The Towing Kit w/ Ball Mount and Trailer Wiring for Stealth Hitches Hidden Rack Receiver # SH79FR is just the towing kit for the Stealth Hitches Hidden Rack Receiver # SH84FR, so put together as a kit they are the Stealth Hitches Hidden Trailer Hitch Receiver w/ Towing Kit # SH84FRT.

  • Install Video For Trailer Wiring On A 2023 Porsche Macan
    Hi Peter! We haven't had the chance to install the Towing Kit w/ Ball Mount and Trailer Wiring for Stealth Hitches Hidden Rack Receiver - 2" Ball # SH79FR on a 2018 Macan as of yet, but we have done one on a 2023 Macan and I have that included. From what I could find, the 2018 and 2023 are the same generation, so the install will be the same as well. If this isn't the harness you purchased, let me know. I couldn't find an order under your name or email address anywhere in our system,...
