The tow hitch frame attatches to reinforced area's under the rear wings, or fender's as you guys say. The mounting holes are already there so need to go drilling holes. On the left hand side just below the bumper you should have a "tie-down" bracket (for shipping the car when new) remove the 3 bolts that hold this in place and thats where you bolt the frame to, you'll find 3 more pre-drilled holes in the same place on the right hand side. The holes are already threaded so all you need are 3 more bolts the same size as the one's you remove to get rid of the tie-down bracket. Look in the boot (trunk) at the very rear of the right hand side and you will see a wiring loom running from right to left, thats the loom for the lights so just tap into that for your trailer lighting. Fitting a towbar on these is very easy to do, so easy you can do it single handed. There's no cutting or bending things to get the frame to fit and nothing gets in the way so you can actually do it on your own. On some models you might have a shallow "spoiler" or skirt attatched to the rear bumper held on by five 8mm bolts, if you have that on your car, you can either just cut a small hole in the center to clear the frame neck, or just throw it away, it doesn't really do much anyway. With the weight your planning to pull, you dont really need any extra reinforcing on the frame but by all means beef it up.
