Of the 3 Class III 2 inch hitches we have available, two are going to mount the same way. The Draw-Tite hitch, # 75430, and the Curt hitch, # 13469, have a very similar bolt pattern . They both require holes to be drilled.

The other hitch, Draw-Tite part # 75138 does not require drilling, but will be a longer install as you have to remove the plastic rear bumper cover.

Other than the installation process differences, they have the same features. If you are comfortable using a drill, I would suggest either of the first two. Removing the rear plastic fascia is typically more of a time consuming task than drilling a few holes. I'd give the Curt hitch a very slight edge for ease of install.

I will include a video so you can see the process.
