Arrives before Christmas To see if this custom-fit item will work for you please tell us what vehicle you'll use it with.
You like how your Toyota RAV4 looks, but sometimes you'd like to carry bikes, gear, or a small trailer. This hitch gives you that flexibility without sacrificing style. Just click in the receiver when you need it and pop it out when you're done.
You didn't buy your car to be a tow rig, you bought it because it looks good. But maybe your buddies call and want to hit the trails, or you've got a jet ski you want to haul to the lake for the weekend. Maybe you're out of room in your trunk or back seat and want a cargo carrier so you can finally bring the gear you haven't been able to haul before. This hitch gives you a way to bring that stuff without turning your car into something it's not.
The hitch body bolts to factory mounting points on your vehicle and stays hidden behind the bumper. Nothing sticks out and nothing changes the way your vehicle looks. When it's time to tow, just insert the receiver. When you're done, take it off and store it in your trunk or garage. It's that simple.
The receiver slides in vertically and locks with a firm click so you'll know it's secure. When you're done towing, unlock it with the key and pull it out. There's no tools required and no loose hardware laying around. There's no sign the hitch is even there. And unlike other hitches with bulky chain loops built into the receiver, this one keeps the loops tucked up and out of sight. They're easy to reach when you're hooking up, and they're sized right so you can clip your chains straight on without messing with quick links. And don't forget to pop in the included protective plug to keep road grime out of the hitch body when your aren't using the receiver.

This hitch was well protected by the packaging, and the shipment arrived in perfect condition. The engineering and finishing on this hitch is beautiful, with smooth weld beads and thick, semi-gloss black powder coat paint. All hardware is clearly identified and installation processes laid out logically in the instructions; the job took around two(2) hours to complete. The innovative receiver head design is remarkable: when not in use, the hitch is completely invisible! When needed, the Receiver Head “ball-locks” into the hitch frame at about the same height (just slightly higher, actually) as the dual exhaust tips. A lock cylinder, with two supplied keys, protects the installed receiver head from being stolen. I love the design and the relative ease of installation, the main reason being its invisibility when not in use.
Written instructions an abomination. A actual crimes against humanity. No video available either from eTrailer or Oris for this model hitch. Just to figure out how to insert the detachable hitch took an hour!!!! To install it, had to watch an conglomeration of other style hitches on YouTube to figure it out. No advice to make cutout, nortemplate for the bumper cutout, nor edge trim for the cut. Took me six hours to install as a result of the sorrowful, poor resolution pictograms. The product is quite nice, and hitch is completely hidden.
This receiver/hitch does require removal of the bumper skirt but its totally worth the time. Everything lined up perfectly and the cut out for the removable receiver is totally hidden. Also, if you have the kick option for the hatch this unit allows you to keep that feature.
So far it’s great. Very solid and love no hole cut into a painted bumper.
