Whats the best place to get a trailer hitch

[sssergsss]

Guys,
I want to install a bike rack on my LR3 bit I guess I need a trailer hitch before I can do this. Does anyone know where the best place is to buy these? The dealer has the hitch I think for $350.

Thanks.

Take 1/2 of that $350 and buy a nice yakima roof rack?
Otherwise, you might find a slightly cheaper LR hitch on ebay, but I believe there are no non OEM hitches available at this point. If you are only using it for your bikes, at least you won't have to buy the $100 wiring harness

Just keep shopping, and call on some of the dealers, many are willing to negotiate to make the sale.

I just saw a hitch on eBay. I did a search on Land Rover LR3. The hitch is really quite cool and works very well. Be sure you look in the storage area prior to purchasing, as there has been more than one very happy and surprised LR3 owners that found out they actually already had the hitch.

schafari, where exactly is this "storage compartment?" I was about to go buy one, but I don't want to if I already have one!

Qwertmonkey, this is a space on the lef back panel, this has been posted on other threads and you can see a diagram here: Land Rover Forums > Technical Discussions > LR3

Try "hitch storage" or something similar and you should be able to get more information.
