Hello all,
I need to replace the rear bumper on my 2005 LX470 that has the "through the bumper" hidden tow hitch from the factory. I have purchased the parts, including new bumper cover, hitch cover, and retainers for the removable cover, but I'm second guessing cutting the hole in my new bumper cover. From what I can tell from pictures, the 2004's and 2005's almost all had the "hidden" receiver while newer and older ones went with an under bumper tow bar.
I don't intend to do any towing (and I don't own the required adaptor) so I'm leaning on just keeping the smooth cover and MAYBE putting a "normal" receiver hitch below.
Any thoughts or suggestions?
