[V8] Trailer hitch

[Ingo Rautenberg]

Nah. We never seam to get the really good stuff here. A 'real' trailer hitch apparently didn't / doesn't fit in with Audi's Image in North America. You need to tow something, you get a truck. :-/

I`d rather look for the factory option detachable Westfalia hitch. When 
not in use, it's totally invisible.
Additionally, when equipped with the factory towing package, there were 
two 'braces' added in the trunk to stiffen up the car. Without those, 
towing capacity is limited - something ALL hitches except the factory 
one have in common. Towing even heavy trailers at triple-digit speeds is 
a blast in my so-equipped car.
However, I have no clue if that package was available in North America 
or not....

Anyone have a dalan hitch they want to part with or has anyone installed one that they know how it mounts to the v8?  Does it mount where the bumper mounts to the frame and then somewhere else?  Thanks in advance.
