Evo Hitch

Just made this yesterday, my old talon had one so I though why not. I use it to tow a little utility trailer since I don’t own a truck. The material was not optimized, it was scrap that I had laying around.

Re: Evo Hitch

If you get a JDM rear, there is a spot that pops out for a trailer hitch.

I know Kerry had a hitch on his 03, and his old JDM rear is now on my car.

Re: Evo Hitch

That is sweet! So where do you put your plate when you are towing?

Not sure yet, I have a couple of options. Make some standoffs and mount the plate using the bottom holes shifting the plate up. Or use a magnetic plate holder like the ones that dealerships use

Re: Evo Hitch

The magnet idea works great on Evo's, that's what I've been using on mine. It leaves minor scratches if you don't keep it clean though.
