Amazingly strong

I love my car and I didn't want to drill the bumper for my state-mandated front fairing unless it was necessary. Thought I'd try mounting and drilling first if that doesn't work. I was very pleased with the mount's stability, adjustability and low cost. Excellent purchase. It's as easy to install as it CAN be (beast's nature), but the instructions could be a bit clearer (talk to me like I'm 4 years old). However, you will be satisfied with the results.

Pros
  • Pleasant to use
Cons
  • Lots of stuff

Not suitable for external accessories

This article is not universal. Not suitable for Lexus RC 200t/350. The longest pole is too short for 3 spacers and 2 spacers are not enough. I'm not sure how it even fits in the towing eye. I followed the paper directions and the bar kept spinning in the tow hook slot. I tighten the rod like in the video but it just rotates in place. I don't even understand how the tow hook is supposed to tighten and rotate as there is no rig, it's just a piece of plastic.

Pros
  • New
Cons
  • I don't like it, everything is fine

Custom repurposing

Beautifully designed. Very well done when used for its intended purpose. But instead I'm testing its limits, redesigning the thing and using it as a stabilizing mount for my collapsible spare tire carrier. It has a bit more flexibility than I was hoping for for a $45 item. It actually looks pretty cool and can be used to attach other items like a gas canister, ax or something else. Was almost too perfect to come up with different sizes of stems and spacers. In general I am satisfied.

Pros
  • This is great
Cons
  • Good but not great

Doesn't fit my Subaru WRX 19

I only give it 3 stars because it looks good once installed but unless my friend bought the exact same kit it wouldn't fit my car. There were only 3 different sizes of spacers and my hitch was so long that no three spacer configuration would fit. I was lucky my friend didn't use all of his spacers so I was able to use his extras. Company Tip: Offer more spacer size options and this could very well be a one size kit. I like the universal fit idea, but I'm not too happy about it not fitting my…

Pros
  • Stylish and modern design
Cons
  • Clarity

Got it working on a 2006 Mercedes S class with parking sensors.

Standard nuts should be replaced with lock nuts. Stainless steel hardware wouldn't hurt either. The mid shaft was too long so I had to cut it down. Installed on a 2006 Mercedes S-65 AMG with parking sensors. I had to install with the shaft in the top right holes and bend the ends of the top number plate down around the mounting plate so I didn't get a constant warning beep. I used the longest offset, medium expansion fit, and medium length threaded shank. I replaced all the bolts/washers/nuts…

Pros
  • Easy to use
Cons
  • Long lead time
