I recently installed the hitch.I bought it online but at the moment cannot recall the sellers name as it was drop shipped from Curt mfg. The Curt number is 11806,ill see if i can find where i bought it from as it was the least expensive i found.i can e mail you a scan of the instructions if you want. I paid less than $200 with free shipping,most places wanted alot more tha $200 + shipping Don

The Curt hitches are fairly nice. I mostly use mine for a hitch-mount bike rack.

Are those OE wheels Jay? The offset looks unusual.

You are correct!...when I bought the car it had these wheels on it...they were polished and the wrong offset. I promptly replaced them with a set of painted, correct offset alloys...

Mmm, sold those. Bundts or flat-face okay? I see them occasionally on scrapped GenII 126s.
