I have a hitch that looks exactly like the one in the schematic, except I
remember paying a bit less than $135.  And that was not a group buy.  Call
Johnson's Foreign Parts, the good folks, at 1-888-VW-PARTS.  They're located
in Alabama.  Very reliable and very trustworthy.  Tell them Chris Stann sent
you.  I get no kickbacks or favors.

I just dug up the receipt.  $68.34 with tax and shipping.

Chris.
