Question:
Can you detail how this part HM40975 would mount onto my Audi Q7? Your product info states it will fit, but none of the videos or comments discuss anything about it. Thank you! Pic is also attached of my vehicles current towing system setup

I recommend using a No-Drill Mount Bracket, Long # 18136. You may need to modify the # 18136 bracket or the bracket that comes with the Hopkins Trailer Connector # HM40975 to work for your application, since the crossbar of your trailer hitch is hidden up behind the bumper.
The mounting bracket # C57202 measures 6-1/2 inches long. You will want to measure from the top of your hitch's crossbar to the bottom of the bumper to make sure that this bracket will clear the bumper.
