Features to know about

Clean Look Without the Bulk: Completely Hidden Hitch Design

You don’t have to sacrifice the clean lines of your vehicle to carry your bikes or extra gear. The Stealth Hitches Hidden Rack Receiver - Custom Fit - 2" mounts behind the bumper with the cross tube fully concealed. When you’re not using it, the 2" x 2" receiver detaches in seconds without tools, leaving no visible hardware behind. A hitch plug covers the opening to keep out dirt and debris. It’s a totally hidden setup that keeps your vehicle looking like it just came off the assembly line.

Quick and Simple Setup: No Drilling or Welding Required

Installing this hitch is a straightforward bolt-on job that uses existing connection points to protect your vehicle’s crumple zones. There’s no drilling or welding involved, and once mounted, the receiver attaches or detaches with a simple latch-and-lock motion. Just push the base into the stainless steel center block until it clicks, lock it in place, and you’re ready for a bike rack or cargo carrier rated up to 350 lbs tongue weight.

Strong, Secure, and Built to Last: Stainless Steel Construction

This hitch isn’t just about looks—it’s built tough. The durable stainless steel construction resists corrosion, while the black powder coat finish provides extra rust protection against weather and road grime. The integrated lock keeps the detachable receiver secure from theft, and every unit meets SAE J684 safety regulations for peace of mind on every trip.

Ready for Racks and Carriers: Purpose-Built for Accessories

The rack receiver is designed specifically for hitch-mounted racks and cargo carriers. Slide your accessory shank into the 2" receiver when you need extra hauling space, then remove it when you’re done for a clean finish. If you ever want to tow, you can upgrade later with the Stealth Hitches towing kit (SH82VR – sold separately), rated up to 3,500 lbs gross trailer weight.

Thanks for the great engineering solution. I got what I wanted. The removable hitch does not spoil the look of my car, it can be installed and removed in 1 minute. I use it purely for transporting bicycles.

  • Recommended Hitches for a 2022 and 2024 VW Tiguan SEL R-Line
    Yes, I can! I checked with Stealth Hitches and the only option they currently have is on your 2022 VW Tiguan and it's item # SH49ZR. They haven't been able to confirm it fits the 2024 model yet. This is just the hitch with the accessory receiver. If you would like to tow you will also need the Towing Kit w/ Ball Mount and Trailer Wiring for Stealth Hitches Hidden Rack Receiver item # SH82VR. The etrailer Trailer Hitch item # e43ZR you were looking at will fit both the 2022 and 2024 VW...

  • Hidden Trailer Hitch Receiver Options For a 2022 VW Tiguan SEL
    The EcoHitch Stealth Trailer Hitch Receiver # 306-X7393 is the a great receiver for your 2022 Volkswagen Tiguan SEL. The removable receiver tube and construction with recycled materials is a great option. I do recommend considering the Hidden Hitch by Draw-Tite # DT62GR and Stealth Hitches # SH49ZR as well. I personally like these options as they are much easier to install and remove as they do not use a threaded bolt like the EcoHitch. This is very helpful as if its not easily removable...

  • Recommended Hitch for 2021 Volkswagen Tiguan SE With No Holes or Bolts in Side Frame
    Your 2021 Tiguan SE should have holes in the side frame, it is the weldnuts that have been reported missing on some models. I recommend completely avoiding this with the Stealth Hitches Hidden Rack Receiver - Custom Fit - 2" # SH49ZR. This custom fit hitch uses a different installation process so the lack of weldnuts will not be an issue. The Stealth Hitch replaces the factory reinforcement beam on the back of your vehicle. The hitch has a tongue weight of 350 lbs and is only for hitch...

  • Availability Of 2" Trailer Hitch Receiver For 2021 Volkswagen Tiguan
    I would be happy to recommend a 2" trailer hitch receiver for your 2021 Volkswagen Tiguan SE! At this time (7/2/2021) there is only one 2" trailer hitch receiver confirmed to fit your vehicle, the Stealth Hitches Hidden Rack Receiver - Custom Fit - 2" # SH49ZR. This hitch has a 350lb tongue weight rating and when used with the receiver attachment is only able to carry a bike rack or cargo carrier, and cannot be used to tow a trailer.

  • Can Stealth Hitch for 2021 Volkswagen Tiguan Tow Small Kayak Trailer
    The Stealth Hitches Hidden Rack Receiver # SH49ZR will be able to tow your kayak trailer as long as it does not exceed 3,500 lbs. I highly doubt your trailer and kayak weigh that much combined so it shouldn't be a problem. When you add the Towing Kit w/ Ball Mount and Trailer Wiring for Stealth Hitches Hidden Rack Receiver - 2" Ball # SH82VR the gross towing weight for the hitch is 3,500 lbs. You will also need to double check the towing capacity of your 2021 VW Tiguan. You will be limited...

  • Can a 2019 VW Tiguan Carry a Mobility Scooter With the Stealth Hitches SH49ZR Installed?
    The Stealth Hitches Hidden Rack Receiver # SH49ZR will be rated up to 350 pounds, but from what I could find, it will be rated up to 220 pounds when installed on a 2019 VW Tiguan as this is the vehicle's max tongue weight capacity. With that being said, as long as the combined weight of the scooter and its carrier is less than the 220 pounds, you will be good to go. If it ends up being heavier than 220 pounds, you will need to go another way. You can add the Towing Kit w/ Ball Mount and...
