Question:
I used to have a bmw x5 with a bike rack that went on my hitch. I just recently purchased a 2015 Mercedes GLK 250. I cannot find any information for a the correct hitch and trailer wiring applications anywhere. Could you possibly help me out in determining the right hitch to purchase? Im missing out on potential trail time. Thanks!

Expert Reply:
The trailer hitch designed to fit your GLK 250 is part # C13155. This is a Class lll hitch and it has a 2 inch receiver opening.
Per a note from Curt warranty requirements, all non-trailer loads (bike racks, cargo carriers, etc) must be supported by stabilizing straps, such as part # 18050.
The trailer harness I recommend for your vehicle is the Curt Wiring Harness, part # C59236. The wires to connect the harness are located behind the tail lights on your GLK 250.
