That's slick, HR! I've yet to look into ECE's HH. Does the flip down license plate holder come with the hitch? I'd luv to see some pics of the hitch's form and mounting points.

Looks good. Easy install I assume?

Only a couple of hours. The instructions say you have to remove the rear bumper, but you don't. Unbolt rear bumper brace, drill 4 holes (with a template) and bolt it on. You will also have to mark and remove your tag bracket to cut out a hole. Pretty easy install.

Hidden hitch is the way to go. Thanks for the pictures.

86swb,

How about some pics of that yellow thing in the background?

Thanks for the pics...I was looking at doing this for my Burb last year, but it didn't come to the top of the list. I thought that ECE provided a license plate holder with an opening for the receiver, has that changed? What did you do for trailer wiring? ECE told me that pickup harnesses are easy to access, but Burbs are not...

G,

It does come with a flip up tag bracket, it mounts to your orignal tag bracket. You have to cut a hole in the original one, so the hitch to slide through into the receiver. Look at pic #3 & #5 of my second post. My burb was already wired for trailer, but it's not to difficult to do. You will have to remove the back interior panels to access the wiring.
