Hey Ro! The AMG Line body kit does interfere with the # DT75GR to a point it actually won't fit your vehicle. The only hitch that will fit is the Stealth Hitches Hidden Rack Receiver # SH49MR. Are you using this the hitch for a bike rack? This hitch comes with a receiver for accessories and is rated up to 600 lbs.
If you plan on using it for towing you need the # SH57GR instead which comes with the towing kit. With the receiver/ball mount in place the hands free sensor will likely be partially blocked but placing your foot on either side will still work. When it is removed there won't be any kind of interference.

Hey Ro, did you decide to go with the Stealth Hitches Hidden Rack Receiver for your bike rack? I'm curious to know if the hands-free trunk feature worked as expected with it. Your experience could really help others with similar setups!
