I attempted to install a Hidden Hitch today on my wife's CX-3. I never worked on cars before but am mechanically inclined, and overall it seemed like a straight-forward matter.
So I got the the 4 bumper bolts off, and lowered the exhaust. Then I brought the hitch into position by hanging it over the 4 bumper bolts. At that point I no longer had access to the 4 bumper bolts, because they were covered by the hitch and the plastic part of the rear bumper. I could not see how I could secure the bolts and move forward from that point.
It does not say anything about having to remove any part of the rear bumper in the instructions. But it seems to me you would have to. Can anyone share therir experience in installing a hitch on the CX-3?
Any input would be much appreciated!
Best regards,
Rick
