I hit up the local JY and got a factory hitch. It cost me an extra $20 to have it cut off because the bolts refused to come loose. Still $35 total wasnt bad.

They are mostly the same, but some are hidden and some aren't. There's always a way to "tuck it up there" because they all bolt to the same place
