Yes, with the cover on you'd never know it's there.Looks great. When you drop the hitch, does the cover hide it all nicely?

Exactly, very interested in the look with the hitch removed/cover in place and how hard is it to install/remove the cover. Hoping it is more fun than trying to pull the hitch cover off my MYP to use my bike rack--talk about poor design, inconsistent results and a real pain in the neck. Considering the Torklift as an option for the LR S I have on order (current EDD June 8 - July 20, and constantly changing.....). Thanks!Looks great.

Receiver is easy-on and -off. Make sure you have a 15/16 wrench. Cover's attached with prongs in the front and two small half-twist plastic screws in the back to secure it.Great to know. How difficult is it to install the receiver part of the hitch? Is the factory cover a pain to take off? On the Y, even with the factory hitch, the cover was a pain.
Are you going to tow a trailer? If so, what plans for a wiring harness?
Not that I am aware of. If we can find the connector, I found a company that will make an adaptor to use with a 4 pin system so that it would be plug and play.Hi guys,
Any of you found a solutions for brake lights when you have a trailer on our S refresh?
Can you share the compagny's info ? The only thing i miss is the kinda of 4pin harness and see if i can enable tow mode with the toolbox.Not that I am aware of. If we can find the connector, I found a company that will make an adaptor to use with a 4 pin system so that it would be plug and play.

They have a towing mode which disables the sensor. This is ONLY for those that have the factory hitch. When I checked with the service center, they said if I added an aftermarket hitch, they would NOT enable the tow mode in the software. YMMV.Just had the ecohitch stealth installed on my refreshed 2021 model s. I had rack n road install the hitch. I added a Thule easyfold xt x2 bike rack. (very compact and easy to use, can handle up to 65 lb e bikes with fenders) I got a torque wrench to remove the right angle.. you are supposed to torque the bolt to 150 ft lbs, I could only torque to 130 ft lb , but I think it will be OK. I went for a bike ride.. works great !.. One thing though, the S looks at the rack a stationary obstacle and thinks you are 12 inches away, so red lines appear when you drive. Also if you back up it tells you to stop ( thinking you are backing into the obstacle) It would be great if Tesla could add a bike rack mode for the S to the software. I wonder if the Y or X has this problem?
If you look on their website, the wiring harness offerred is the Tekonsha 119250. While the list it for the refresh MS, when you actually go to select it, it does not list 2021 or 2022 as an option. I tried unsuccessfully to install the Tekonsha 119250 on my 2021 refresh. See this thread. Trailer hitch on 2021 refresh?Torklift central offers a wiring harness for the model s refresh
