If you look at post 5 in this thread: https://www.greenhybrid.com/discuss/...ing-feh-13782/

There is a link to a image that shows a hitch installed. Maybe this will help with some of the questions on how it mounts & not needing to cut anything.

Hmmm.... if you are willing to work cramped.... you don't have to pop but muffler mounts. At least I didn't with my Draw-Tite and I'm pretty sure its the same hitch, just relabeled.

When you fish the bolts, by the way, if you look there is an opening at the end of the frame rail down at the bumper end... it was easiest to fish them in there from what I found.

Note.... all my comments are on the '06. The '08 might be a bit different.

Yea, I put on the Draw-Tite one too. It isn't exactly the same as the Hidden Hitch, but pretty close. The difference I found, is on the Draw-Tite, the receiver sticks out about an inch further than on the Hidden Hitch. For me, that was a plus because I wanted to make sure the bike rack cleared the tailgate as much as possible.

I fished the bolts thru the ends too. Much easier if you ask me.
