If you would like to upgrade this rack receiver for towing, you will need to purchase the Stealth Hitches towing kit (SH36FR - sold separately). The ball mount included in this kit inserts into the center block of the hitch in place of the receiver attachment. A 2" hitch ball is included with the ball mount, making it ready to tow with out of the box.

If you want to take your bikes to the trail with your family this summer, you have plenty of options. You can carry your bikes on top of your car with a roof rack, but that bulky rack can increase drag on your ride. You can use a trunk rack, but that's a pain to mount and it can scratch your car's paint. Or you can install a hitch on your ride and use a hitch-mounted bike rack to carry your bikes.
This rack receiver is designed to act as a mounting point for your hitch bike rack or cargo carrier. Just slide the shank of your carrier into the receiver for use, and when you're done you can not only remove the carrier, but the receiver as well, leaving your vehicle looking clean and unmodified.
Completely Hidden Design
Nothing can ruin the clean, stylish look of your vehicle like a giant piece of metal bolted beneath its bumper. Luckily, with the Stealth Hitches rack receiver, you never have to worry about messing up your vehicle's lines.
This hitch installs behind your bumper, keeping the cross tube concealed and leaving only the hitch receiver visible. Even better, the receiver can be easily removed from the cross tube when it's not in use so that you won't see any trace of the hitch. This means that you can retain that clean, from-the-factory look for your ride, while still being able to carry your bikes and gear on the next family road trip.
Simple Set Up
The receiver can be attached or detached in seconds with no tools required. To insert the receiver, simply pop the base up into the stainless steel block at the center of the hitch until it automatically latches in place.
Be sure to then press the lock on the side of the block to fully secure the receiver. When you're finished carrying your bikes or cargo, use the included key to unlock the latch. Then turn the handle on the block clockwise and remove the receiver. You can stow the receiver in a safe place, like your vehicle's rear cargo area, or you can use a convenient carrying case (391CASER - sold separately).
And when you're not using the receiver attachment, the included hitch plug covers the center block's opening to protect the hitch's body from dirt and debris.

This completely hidden hitch keeps your vehicle looking like it just came off the assembly line. Remove the receiver for a fully concealed look when you're not carrying your bikes to the trail. Only for use with hitch-mounted racks and carriers.by: David06/01/2022
2020 Volvo XC40
Shipping and packaging were great. The paint on the hitch frame and components was excellent. The lower facia removal was as-described on the video. I found an alignment problem with the drivers side lug that accepts the 3/8” bolt. It was off center of the hole by 3/16”, so I left that bolt out. The passenger side lug was well aligned with the bolt hole. Another issue I found was access to the lock with the facia installed. In the case of my cx40, there was a plastic piece containing three plugs that was immediately below the lock. Not wanting to move it, I relocated the access port further towards the driver side. The access port is small, just big enough to get my had through. It’s difficult the get the key in the lock but doable. My vision of easily removing the stealth hitch has faded.
I question now if I should have gone with the fixed hitch given the difficulty accessing the lock. I took a few photos which I’ll post. I covered the small “ lock” access hole with black electrical tape.
Overall the quality of the hitch is excellent. I would have appreciated more info about accessing the lock.
Comments
The instructions say to move those cables that you are describing as a plastic piece with three plugs, which is actually just the hands free kick sensor. Because you did not want to move those cables, and moved the access port instead, it is more difficult to reach the lock now. It is best just to follow the instructions to ensure that everything works together properly.

Sierra K - 06/06/2022by: Walid07/11/2021
2021 Volvo XC40
I was looking for a hitch primarily for a bike rack or possible some very light towing, but I did not want to ruin the looks of my 2021 Volvo XC40 with a hitch receiver showing in the back. Also I had concerns about blocking the foot sensor for the hatch door with a standard hitch. The Stealth Hitch addressed both concerns perfectly. After installation, it was completely invisible and the foot sensor still worked as it should. I was a very happy camper.
That said, there are 2 considerations to keep in mind before purchasing this product:
1- Make sure there is a qualified local installer in your area as your car could easily be damaged if the installation is not done properly. My Volvo dealer refused to install it because it was not their own product. Proper installation by a professional outfit is expensive and in my case was nearly double to cost of the hitch itself. If you happen to have the tools and know-how to do the installation yourself, then more power to you and has been reportedly done successfully by others.
2- You do have to get under the bumper to install the hitch receiver extension every time you want to attach something to the hitch. Not really a huge deal and a quick process, but a little inconvenient nonetheless. Can't have everything I suppose :)
Overall a great and well designed product that meets a specific need.

Nice hitch and does not show after installation. No welding needed.
Inventory immediately available and ships vs other vendors having longer lead times and no inventory.
Etrailer website easy to use, has lots of detailed information and videos of each item.
Customer service and shipping responded timely and accurately to my order.
Very pleased with Etrailer.
