Question:

Hi, i have worked with you in the past when i needed a hitch to pull my motorcycle trailer with a 325i BMW..i am now looking to get a 2010 or 2011 mercedes c300 in either the sport or luxury version..i notice that the sport version rides a little lower.. do both versions of the c300 use the same hitch? and which electrical connection would be best..the BMW used a system that isolated voltage demands by running from the battery.. thank you for your help.

The Curt trailer hitch, # C11030, fits all models of the 2010 or 2011 Mercedes C Class sedan, despite ride height. I have included a link to the installation instructions for you to review. The hitch comes with the correct ball mount, hitch pin, and clip. You will just need to furnish a properly sized ball. You can use # 19256 for a 1-1/4 inch or # 19258 for a 2 inch diameter.

For trailer wiring, you will need top obtain a harness from a dealership. Mercedes does not license their wiring for aftermarket companies to make trailer wiring harnesses.
