## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4.0 out of 5 stars







  
  
    Works as designed
  

*by M***I on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on June 27, 2013*

This works well and is a very 'stealth' hitch on my Cooper S. I can barely tell it is there.I had a small fitment issue however. The hitch presses on the radiator housing when I install it, which causes a small amount of cabin vibration. I'm checking if I can install some foam or something to cut down the vibration.It also presses on the bumper cover just enough that I have trouble getting back in the bottom 10mm bumper cover fasteners.I will be a happy camper if I can resolve the radiator housing interference issue.Update: I used a disk grinder to remove a small amount of material from the back side of the base plate and put some Gorilla Tape (black duct tape basically) at the interference points. It is still pressing but not as much and the vibration is improved.I towed the car about 500 miles this weekend. It performed well.
