My wife and I recently bought a 2007 LR3. I'm looking for the removable hitch receiver. The part that the removable receiver slides into under the rear bumper for towing is there (the hitch receiver receiver). The owner's manual says that receiver should be stored "behind an access cover on the left-hand side of the loadspace (7-seat models)" and this is a 7 seat model I'm talking about. When I open that cover there is nothing resembling a receiver in there, and I don't even see any sort of mounting straps or hard points which would indicate that one was once stowed there. (See picture.)
My question is, does that receiver come as a factory option/accessory or should all LR3's have come with one originally. I'm asking so I know whether or not to be ****** about it being missing, and also if it's optional and mine doesn't have it, is there anything else I will need in order to tow? For example, a wiring harness. I didn't see a trailer wiring connector anywhere on the back.
