    This works well and is a very ‘stealth’ hitch on my Cooper S. I can barely tell it is there.I had a small fitment issue however. The hitch presses on the radiator housing when I install it, which causes a small amount of cabin vibration. I’m checking if I can install some foam or something to cut down the vibration.It also presses on the bumper cover just enough that I have trouble getting back in the bottom 10mm bumper cover fasteners.I will be a happy camper if I can resolve the radiator housing interference issue.Update: I used a disk grinder to remove a small amount of material from the back side of the base plate and put some Gorilla Tape (black duct tape basically) at the interference points. It is still pressing but not as much and the vibration is improved.I towed the car about 500 miles this weekend. It performed well.

    The baseplate was pretty easy to install. The only complaint I have is with the documentation. The instructions say to torque the nuts that hold the bar on to the car manufacturer’s specifications. Why couldn’t they just tell me what that was? But that is not the fault of the seller. It arrived quickly and works flawlessly on my 2005 Mini Cooper Convertible.

    My son attached the unit to my 2005 Mini Cooper just this weekend. I towed it with my RV about 300 miles and it seem to tow okay. A little difficult to hookup and disconnect controls coming off the RV ,but I think it will get easier as I learn about it.

    Fit perfectly on 2002 Mini Cooper and instructions were just about perfect. Make sure and install the brake disconnect switch at the same time if you are using an external brake system inside the car like the Patriot brake. I used the fog light hole.
