Question:

What kind of ball hitch fits it hitch part no C11054 for be Passat year 05

asked by: Gerry

Expert Reply:

The recommended ball mount for the Curt trailer hitch # C11054 that fits your 2005 VW Passat is the Curt Drawbar # C45521.

For a hitch ball that fits you will need either 1-7/8" Hitch Ball # A-80 or 2" Hitch Ball # A-82, depending on the size of your trailer's coupler; you will also need Pin and Clip # F-4 to secure the ball mount to your Passat's hitch.

To add wiring which will give your VW a 4-way connector and allow you to power your trailer's lights you need Wiring Harness # C59496.

I have added photo showing how this hitch will look when installed on an '05 Passat as well as a link to an installation video of the hitch for you to check out.
