Wanted to bump this for clarification. If the exhaust is not a factor (what exhaust?), is there anything else that would prevent the curt 11805 from being installed on a 123 300D sedan? From all I've read it should match up to the shock bolts, and holes would need to be drilled for the supports into the frame rails.... Correct?

I really want something I can plug into instead of the permanent shin buster. Tired of not being able to drag my jet ski around with me.
