Anyone who lives in Germany want to bid on this for me.

I wonder how much this would cost to ship to the United States ?

You might as well go american and get a receiver hitch installed. That's not the removable hitch. That hitch is fixed.





You will want to get the bumper with the covered cutout.

If you look closely to the ebay.de, there is no handle on the left side to twist and pull out the horsecock.

My hitch is a westfalia removable...all I have for now, sorry, but don't get that one.

I have figured the towing pigtail adapter, and yesterday was my maiden tow of a small trailer to the garden shop for some dillodirt (mulch mix)

It was my intent to use one of those as the base. I was planning on welding an american receiver hitch to the german mounting bar. The other alternative is to make something from scratch, which given that no one in Germany will ship to the US it will be something built from scratch.

Interesting thought, to buy the german mounting system, then weld a US receiver hitch to it. Still, a good trailer shop that builds custom trailers all the time, will be able to adapt something to your bumper pretty easily. Mostly, I think I'd try to hide the receiver behind the cutout bumper cover as opposed to below the bumper cover. Our cars sit so low to begin with that lining up with even the most standard of trailers is challenging.

Try bumping around westfalia to see what kind of tow bars and how many they make for E34's. I will look in my files for my stuff and submit what I can.
