Putting on a hitch

I have a 04 Grand Cherokee and I was wanting to put a tow hitch on the back. I know i need to cut a hole in the rear fender to install the hitch, and so I was wondering if you knew of a template or something that I could use to cut it out with. I appreciate any help you can give.

Have you bought the hitch yet? If not, often times when trimming is required the hitch will come with the template.

What hitch did you buy? Some go through the bumper and others go under it...

I believe there it a template already on the inside of the fascia...You can cut that out and find a bezel... They run for like $60 new...

Here is the template...
And here is the website I got it from....http://www.jeepsunlimited.com/forums...d.php?t=444492
