    Anyone know where I can get a hitch for a '06 Audi A8 L? I've looked around the web, but can only find the Euro hitches.

    Welcome to AZ!

    Depending on what you're trying to do, the EU hitch works pretty well. Ball size is 2", you can pull a lot with them and the assembly is invisible when you're not using it.

    Of course, we're biased down here...

    Thanks. Really, I'm only going to be towing my Harley Davidson Fat Boy ~ 800lbs plus trailer weight. The only one I've found is on your guy's EuroHitch.es site (aAU022 model). I just wasn't sure if that hitch would be compatible with U.S. trailers.

    European-spec hitches all come with one ball size (50mm/2"), unlike US hitches that have a variety of sizes available. What this means is that you'll have to convert the trailer (new tongue) if it is not already a 2" setup.

    We have a shipment leaving in 10 days from Germany. If you want to get the unit sooner than later, give us a call or purchase through the site. Otherwise, our next shipment is mid-October.
