Features to know about

Keep Your Vehicle Looking Stock: Completely Hidden Hitch Design

This hitch stays out of sight when you’re not using it. The cross tube sits behind the bumper, and the 2" receiver detaches with no tools, leaving your vehicle looking clean and unmodified. When it’s time to load up bikes or a cargo carrier, the receiver snaps back into place in seconds. No bulky metal hanging below the bumper and no changes to ground clearance or foot-activated trunk sensors.

Quick Transitions from Everyday Driving to Adventure: Detachable 2" Rack Receiver

The rack-only design lets you mount hitch-mounted bike racks or cargo carriers up to a 350 lbs tongue weight limit. When you're done hauling gear, unlock and remove the receiver—then cover the opening with the included hitch plug to keep out dirt and debris. The stainless steel center block secures firmly, and an integrated lock keeps the receiver protected while you’re on the move.

Strong, Simple, and Safe: Durable Stainless Steel Construction

This setup uses a sturdy stainless steel build with a black powder coat finish for corrosion resistance and a long service life. It bolts directly to existing mounting points—no drilling or welding needed—and meets SAE J684 safety regulations. The design preserves your vehicle’s crumple zones while giving you a solid connection for your favorite racks and carriers.

Great, quick shipping from etrailer. This hitch is awesome. Just what I needed to maintain the sporty look of my GTI. I've never been a fan of big bulky hitch receivers on passenger cars. SUVs and trucks, it comes with the territory. Installation was a breeze with the included in instructions. Very well written with color pictures, torque specs, etc. Couldn't be happier with the hitch, and I'm stoked to get back out on the trail with my bike carrier in tow.

Hitch came packaged nicely and everything needed was there
It’s a secure and exact fit and when the receiver is off it will look as if it is not there at all
Trickiest part is just taking the bumper off but just take your time and go slow
Tip : Use some soapy water to help undo the clips securing the rear bumper when it comes time to take it off.

  • Trailer Hitch Options for 2015 Volkswagen GTI
    Hey Matthew, we do have hitches that fit your 2015 Volkswagen GTI but they are under the Golf model and then from there the submodel GTI so my apologies for making that harder to find. So we have really standard hitch options like the Curt part # C11412 which hangs completely below the rear bumper, we have the Ecohitch part # 306-X7310 which only has the opening that hangs below the rear bumper, or we even have the removable Stealth # SH69ZR that has a lower assembly that can be totally...

  • Recommended Hitch for a 2017 Volkswagen Golf GTI
    For your 2017 Volkswagen Golf GTI, we have the # 306-X7309, # C11412& the # 306-X7310 however I recommend going with the Stealth Hitches Hidden Rack Receiver # SH69ZR out of all the hitches offered for your vehicle. This is going to be the only hitch that has a 2" receiver, has a completely hidden design, and is made in the USA. The receiver on this hitch can only be used with hitch mounted accessories and shouldn't be used to tow anything, so if you needed to tow you'd also need the...

  • Will the Stealth Hitches Hidden Rack Receiver Fit a 2016 Volkswagen Golf TDI
    I do have an option for but the Stealth Hitches Hidden Rack Receiver part # SH69ZR is designed for GTI models. It may also fit the TDI but we don't have confirmation of this at this time. That said, we do have a similar option for you in the EcoHitch Hidden Trailer Hitch Receiver part # 306-X7309 which is similar in that it has a hidden design and is a confirmed fit for TDI models. It's also much more cost effective and will work equally great for hitch mounted accessories like bike racks/cargo...

  • Availability of Completely Concealed Receiver Hitch for 2017 Volkswagen Golf GTI
    Although we do have hitch fits for your vehicle, the EcoHitch Stealth 2 inch receiver you referred to, part # 306-X7375 is not a fit for the 2017 Volkswagen Golf GTI. According to EcoHitch, it's only a fit for 2018-2021 models, and unfortunately, they don't offer a stealth-style hitch for the 2017 GTI at this time. For your 2017, EcoHitch recommends the # 306-X7309 which features a concealed crossbar but would leave the receiver tube and safety chain hooks visible. If you want a fully...

  • Will The Stealth Hitches Receiver # SH69ZR Fit a 2016 Volkswagen Golf R?
    For your 2016 Volkswagen Golf R I recommend the EcoHitch Hidden Trailer Hitch Receiver # 306-X7332. The Stealth Hitches # SH69ZR will only fit on the GTI. The EcoHitch gives you a 2" receiver opening like the Stealth Hitches you found. The EcoHitch is made in the USA from recycled materials and comes with a lifetime warranty. The ModuLite # C59496 will provide a 4-way flat trailer connector. This will be needed if you tow a small trailer or carrying a hitch mounted accessory which impairs...

  • Trailer Hitch Receiver Recommendation for a 2015 Volkswagen Golf TDI
    The Stealth Hitches Hidden Rack Receiver # SH69ZR has only been confirmed to fit the GTI model of your 2015 Volkswagen Golf. Since you have the TDI I recommend going with the EcoHitch Hidden Trailer Hitch Receiver # 306-X7309 as we know for sure this will fit your vehicle. It doesn't have the removeable receiver, but the crosstube is hidden so there is minimal parts to be seen. I'm attaching a link to our return policy for you to check out.
