Completely Hidden for a Clean, Factory Look
The EcoHitch Invisi trailer hitch is designed to be completely out of sight. The hitch cross tube bolts onto your vehicle's frame, behind the body of your vehicle. No drilling or welding is required. The receiver portion of the hitch will sit just behind the factory knockout panel in your bumper. Just pop the panel off to tow and put it back on again for a from-the-factory look when you're done using the hitch.
Eco-Friendly Material
With a combination of aerospace-grade aluminum, steel, and stainless steel, each EcoHitch is made of a strong metal alloy that will stand the test of time. The lightweight alloy is composed of recycled materials. Traditional steel hitch manufacturing can use coal or oil, which can contribute to harmful gas emissions. The EcoHitch's recycled materials limit the carbon footprint during manufacturing, so you get a sturdy trailer hitch while also helping the environment.
Rigorous Strength Testing Ensures Durability
This EcoHitch trailer hitch is tested for durability and sturdiness. Using Finite Elemental Analysis (FEA), individual points of stress on the hitch can be detected and remedied. Designers can accurately test the hitch to ensure that it will meet or exceed SAE J684 standards. The EcoHitch Invisi trailer hitch is carefully researched and strength tested for a durable, high-quality hitch that can resist damage while on the road.

This completely hidden, custom-fit hitch installs behind your vehicle's factory knockout panel. Aluminum and steel alloy construction is durable and eco-friendly. Powder coat finish resists rust.by: Eric08/04/2023
The fit is perfect. Following the video, installation took about 2 hours. I use it only to carry bikes on my 1up bike rack. This rack works well because you don't use a hitch pin, it's very hard to place the pin. Would recommend this WRX hitch over any other, the only thing hanging below any WRX in the rear should be nice sounding pipes! The picture shows the only body mod I had to do to get a perfect fit, just to make sure hitch didn't rub the rear body.
by: Andrew04/21/2022
I love my e trailer! Hides away unseen. Wiring works flawlessly. I've had it about a year thus far. Have not had any issues. 10/10 would definitely recommend this to anyone!
by: Philip07/06/2023
This product is great quality and was a perfect fit. The support videos really helped with installation. Also this hitch is great as you can't even tell it's there when I'm not using it, I would absolutely recommend it.
by: Nic09/26/2022
Really easy to install and durable product! Really solid fitment on a 2020 wrx sti. I highly recommend cutting the bottom of your bumper to make placing trailer pins less of a chore.

2019 Subaru WRX
This was on the only hitch receiver option that I could find that used the factory knockout on my 2019 WRX. I really did not want to use an under-mount receiver because of reduced clearance. Also, it would place my bike rack too close to the exhaust.
Installation was fairly complex compared to the last receiver that I installed (on a different vehicle). However, I expected this after viewing the installation video. The video was very helpful.
I have been very happy with the product so far. Placing a locking hitch pin is a bit of a pain, but I plan to leave my bike rack attached to the car most of time, so this is not a big deal for me.

No issues. Still happy with receiver.
by: Emir04/18/2023
Install was very easy. If youre worried about dropping the exhaust just remove the cats like i did
by: Sebastian11/07/2023
I have a 2017 Subaru STI and this fits like a dream. Make sure you have a 2-3 hours to do this because the entire back of your car needs to come off but it's definitely worth it. Only the ball hitch is visible when you choose to haul something. Any other time it's invisible. Peep the pics

Subaru Forester
It’s been a year since installation. I use it for my bike rack on my ‘21 WRX. Install was done by myself and was a little more involved than my Forester and Outback installations but the clean look is totally worth it.
by: Clay 08/07/2023
2015 Subaru WRX
This hitch is a little pricey, but worth it! It virtually disappears behind the bumper and works really well. If you hate the look of a hitch on your car, but still want the functionality for towing or accessories, this is perfect.
by: Jordan D.10/14/2023
Good quality and packaging. Install video was very helpful, watched it twice before receiving product, and when I went to install, I didn't even open the instructions. Very detailed and informative to the process on a rather intricate vehicle (step by step walkthrough).
by: Albert04/11/2022
I'm very happy with this product, and it met my expectations. I usually load up a rooftop tent for camping, so that leaves no room for my mountain bikes. I wanted to make my WRX more capable to being an overall great car for outdoor activities by adding this ecohitch. Now I can also add a basket to load more cargo if necessary. Installation was easy to follow, and I recommend having at least one person to help you. It will make the installation process a lot easier. I also found the etrailer installation video very helpful and easy to follow.
by: Andrew03/16/2023
The hitch has been great for the past year, has allowed me to tow and carry all sorts of stuff and is hidden super well in the bumper. Installation isn’t super simple but that’s not the fault of the hitch. Only complaint is the locking pin can be very difficult to get in unless you’re willing to chop off more of your rear bumper.
by: David01/05/2023
2015 Subaru WRX
I got the 2" hitch and wiring harness for my '15 WRX. Both installed without issue; the fit was spot-on and the instructions were clear (watching videos always helps). The hitch is completely hidden, but that does make attaching a bike rack or ball mount a pain in the butt - having small hands would help. The wiring harness works perfectly.
by: Joey07/27/2020
Simply amazing!
No rattles, great fitment and above all a great video delineating all the details on every screw and clamp removal. I did this on my own without raising the car on jack stands or even dropping the rear hanger bushing. Total install time thanks to the video was under 2 hours and that included cleanup!
Also the hitch was delivered quickly so I got a jump on it before the weekend came. Very happy with etrailer and this hitch. I’ve gotten a few from etrailer already including one for my S2000 a few years ago that worked perfectly.
Thank you

2015 Subaru WRX
Love it. The Q&A on this site it sounded like I wasn't going to be able to use my Thule T2 Pro XT rack but with an adapter (I got a high-low adapter, you could use an extender as well but I wanted the smallest adapter I could find which ended up being a 4-inch high-low for ~$60) I was able to make it work. The only downside to this method is that it causes the hitch to stick pretty far out from the back of the car (pictured).
Installation wasn't that bad, it ended up taking two days because I stripped the bolts on the actual bumper and that took me forever to figure out but if not for that this was probably about 3 hours to install with no mechanical know-how.
by: David S04/10/2021
2020 Subaru WRX
Absolutely amazing trailer hitch, very easy to install and very robust unit. Quality material was used, I feel like I could load up a car hauler and drag around stuff in my WRX. This will be used for a bike rack but during the install I said “this is overkill but for the price, it’s worth it”. Would recommend this to anyone. Someone with e 10mm, 14mm, and a 19mm socket could easily install this on a nice day with a drink of your choice.
by: Dason04/05/2021
I like it a lot. It’s nice how if I don’t want it to be seen then I can take the ball out and out the cover in and nobody will know I even have a hitch. But the hitch has worked great. My only issue is it’s difficult to get the pin in for the ball hitch but that’s a minor issue. And I expected that from getting the hitch that’s hidden. So I have no complaints.
by: Aaron05/12/2021
The hitch was very difficult to install without a lift. I couldn't reach the exhaust hanger in the middle of the car and therefore the mufflers were in the way the whole time. The hitch works great and it's gone with the cover back on. The hitch was shipped in a box without any packing material which caused it to punch holes in the box as well as get all chipped and scratched up. Overall, if you get a lift and a friend (like the video says) and ignore the shipping damages, you'll be very happy having this very clean and useful hitch.
by: John04/25/2022
Easy install! Pulls my Dirtbike hauler no problem, even towed a jet ski. Makes my WRX way more useful.
by: Katie07/26/2020
2016 Subaru WRX
The whole installation took about 5 hours with a lift and shop full of tools. Fit perfectly and the video instructions make it a breeze. the written instructions left a little to be desired with the pictures but the site has plenty of those.
by: Michael05/14/2018
2016 Subaru WRX
Fits perfectly and install was straight forward! A ratchet strap is helpful in positioning the hitch during installation, and make sure to remove the two rear most exhaust hangers prior to installing so the hitch can slide in.
by: Dana03/27/2021
This hitch is incredible! Easy install if you have some background in working on cars because there is a lot to disassemble and reassemble. However the amount of work is so worth it to have this hitch hidden up behind the bumper.
by: Otto 02/15/2023
Hitch works great and can't be seen when not in use. Hard to reach hitch pin, but that is because it is hidden.
by: Russell Gililland11/19/2018
2015 Subaru WRX
Solid product. Only complaint is the restricted access to the hitch pin. Not really a valid complaint because you can clearly see this will be the case before buying. Make a small cut away from the underside of your bumper and getting your hand is is doable but still not easy.
Overall happy with the construction and material available for technical support on the web.
by: Mitchell05/02/2021
I’ve bought two hitches for two cars one was a 2019 Subaru cross trek and the other 2020 Subaru WRXSTI. Delivery was only a few days not too bad considering it ships from Missouri and I live in California. Excellent quality and excellent fit. It only took me a half hour for the cross track and about 3 Hours for the WRX. Watching the videos were Very helpful. Thank you, Mitch.

- Distance From Hitch Opening of EcoHitch to Bumper for 2016 Subaru WRXI spoke with my contact at EcoHitch and they sent me this in response to your question: "For the measurement from the end of the receiver to the end of the bumper, I don't have that info handy but based on photos of installation, I would assume it would be right around 1-2" before being exposed. The distance from the pin hole to the edge of the receiver, the measurement is 1"."
view full answer... - Where To Have EcoHitch Invisi Trailer Hitch Receiver for 2020 Subaru WRX Installed The EcoHitch Invisi Trailer Hitch Receiver part # 306-X7257 is an excellent option for a 2020 Subaru WRX, the only option with a larger 2" receiver tube opening in fact. In regards to installation, we suggest taking the vehicle and hitch to a local RV dealer with service center as they will be the most experienced. That said, we are not able to recommend specific locations. In regards to cost, you can expect to pay around two hours of the shops labor rate.

I am not familiar with the laws in your state but the use of two safety chains is the safest practice. You will want to cross the...

The hitches are designed to fit around a stock exhaust. If your aftermarket exhaust sits exactly where the stock exhaust would, then the # 306-X7257 EcoHitch would fit perfectly for you. However, if the aftermarket exhaust is positioned differently or is larger than the stock exhaust you might have problems getting everything to fit together. My best advice would be to check out the linked install video, and pay very close...

- Will the Eco Hitch Invisi Hitch Work with my 1UP Bike RackThe EcoHitch Invisi Trailer Hitch Receiver part # 306-X7257 is a 2" x 2" receiver tune opening. While we do not sell the 1UP from what I have seen of them they come in the 2" x 2" variety. If your is 2" compatible it will work out great for you. The only thing to be sure of is that you will need to have less than 2.5" of shank behind the pin hole on your rack for the holes to line up.

The hitch will be able to handle the 506 lbs but you will want to verify what your Subaru's capacity is. Sometimes the hitches are overrated for the vehicles they fit due to different models. The best way to verify your car's capacity is to call a local Subaru dealership and give them your VIN. The hitch manufacturer's do product testing on tracks with speedbumps...
