Indeed, easy to remove the panel. However, for those preferring to have the receiver ready for use, the lack of trim (panel removed) surrounding the receiver looks quite unfinished when not towing. Does Subaru offer an optional trim panel to finish the opening while still exposing the receiver?
It's actually not me in that video, just one I found online.You need to do a video on how to put the hitch cover back on without the clips falling out.
If it ever stops raining here, I may do that. I have a list of videos I want to do, and I finally dug out my lav ("shirt mic") to get good audio.You need to do a video on how to put the hitch cover back on without the clips falling out.
I used hot glue and it's holding up so far. I've maybe install the cover 5 times since i've done that. If this doesn't hold i'll try jb Plastic weld.Any else think about glueing the clips in place? I may try using gorilla glue... That way they can are permanent...
Just leave it off. I have had mine off since about the 3rd day.We don't have the trailer hitch installed yet, but will be getting it done.
I am hoping that someone will make an aftermarket part that will fit in that blank space and allow access to the hitch and plug.

The clips you are referring to are not the problem ones. The problem ones are clipped on the bumper and the spring loaded ones are attached through them to secure the cover. they are square and easily fall off the bumper when the cover is removed.I’m wondering if y’all who are having the clips fall out have the ones that go with the cover that doesn’t have a hitch underneath?
In the kit to install the receiver there was new clips that are spring loaded and twist in/out easily. The ones I removed were the simple plastic pop-up ones that fall out when released
