It will be used for a cycle carrier, so I think all I need is the armature.

Is fitting a diy or dealer job? *Gone* Discovery3 HSE

I bought mine from Duckworths, the site sponsor, they will deliver free to members..the armature is very heavy.

I had my dealer fit mine plus the electrics, only because I'm lazy, but it can be a DIY job if you choose. Current MY2020

This is the armature to which you can fit different hitches.

This is the height adjustable 'Farmers Hitch'

and this is the more common detachable hitch and receiver

Duckworths do a bike rack along with all the other parts

the farmers hitch is also removable, in fact it is quicker to remove than the swan neck jobby, and is less obtrusive once removed as there is no swan neck reciever left on the vehicle.

And adds a little protection to your bumper when reversing up to your trailer

Just kidding mine's rusted/seized on solid I don't think it's been off the car since new in 2007. I can remove the pin easy enough. Plus side is the bag and the rubber bung are as new
