Can you add hitch to factory SAM unit?
I am going to intall a OEM hitch on our 2011 ML350 4matic. I found the factory hitch from ECS tuning online for $300 less than my dealer, but have a few questions about wiring.
I am going to get the wiring harness and hitch socket, but will I need a new SAM? Can I just plug the harness into my current factory SAM and have the dealer re-configure it?
Or will I need to buy a completely new one? I would love to save the extra $350 by using my current one.
Thanks everyone.
