The hitch fit perfect. Easy to follow instructions. One thing I would suggest is to install the wiring harness first. It's hard to get your hands behind hitch once installed. Also get familiar with taking apart the factory connectors before starting. There's a small lift tab you have deal with.A little lube (Vaseline works) on muffler hangers helps out. Get something to temporarily put under muffler to hold it up while disconnecting hangers. Also use a small hacksaw to cut the opening in the rear valance, use masking tape for a guide, take a little less off than necessary then check fit. Curt Hitch should be loosely mounted, put one bolt on each side so you can swing the back up and down to mark your tape lines at the bottom.Take you time cutting and you should end up with a perfect fit.
