    Anyone know what's involved in adding a trailor hitch to our cars for a bike rack?

    Uhaul sells more trailer hitches than anyone in the country.

    I got one off ebay for $100 and installed it myself. It mounts to the spare tire well. Pretty easy DIY.

    I had Master Hitch do the wiring for the lights for another $100. Now I can haul my Ducatis around...

    Trailer hitch is crappy IMO.

    Put in on the roof cuz it's alot safer!

    Yes, that's the one I have. Note the pic is not of the actual hitch. It was originally designed for the B6, so it either pushes up on the rear diffuser, or you can dremel a small recess for it.
