TRAILER HITCH ON A E WAGON
Anybody out there install a trailer hitch on a E Wagon? I'm not wanting to pull anything, just a 2" hitch so I can put my Rolla Cargo Carrier off my traded ML350 on the E Wagon. Not wanting to install a Thule roof top carrier (too much wind drag imho).
E-Trailer has a inch and a half one but much drilling has to be done on the wagon plus it "seems" the exaust tips have to be removed to use it. Plus I want a 2" hitch to match the Rolla carrier.

Thanks for the link Big Boy11. I looked at their site and they have step by step instructions that are clear to look at plus a list of shops that can do the work in my area. it seems i need to learn how to look for hitches on the internet better.
i saw one thing on that site that I have a pet peeve with. It also applys to Mercedes E-Wagon dash displays. One should NEVER EVER have a display with Red letters on a Black background.

Sillen , Thank you. iIt s always fascinating to see the features that are available outside the USA. Volvo used to make slight variations to the US wagons based upon the assumption that US drivers overloaded the wagons and did not properly maintain them. I would think the electric trailer hitch would be much more appreciated than the required third seat.
