Anyone have the rear bumper cover for the trailer hitch fall off???
My wife came back after a day out with the TReg, minus the cover.... :confused2:

 

[aarpskier]

Yes, but fortunately it happened in the garage. The "ears" on the cover are not thick enough to keep it in place. I gave up and bought a silver propeller!

Thanks!!! My wife is now off the hook, i will return her keys. \/
I hope this doesnt turn out to be a widespread issue for others.

I lost mine coming home from the dealership after they installed it. I replaced it with a small 18" chrome bumper step. It looks awesome

 

[smokin_joe]

Cool
Good for you grkman1 i just have the replacement cover on order

Another option is a flip down hitch step or just having your hitch attachment with ball in the hitch. This also acts as a defensive skewer during a rearend. Buy a Masterlock hitch lock and youre set.

Does Anyone know the part # for this plastic cover? Or perhaps where to buy one online?

My wife lost ours somewhere. I'd like to buy a replacement.

Thanks for your help.

Bump.

Do you or anyone have some info on this?

Go to any trailer or hitch place; the rubber plugs only cost a few bucks.

Buy a spare while you're at it.

I'm asking about the plastic piece cut here in pics 2 & 3:

On my T1, I manufactured that by cutting the opening in the original solid plate, when I installed the Curt hitch. When I bought the used T2, that plate was missing. I have discovered how convenient hitching and unhitching is without having to bother with it.

I'm not sure you guys know what I'm talking about.

On Tregs without a trailer hitch, there is a plastic piece that covers the void where the hitch would poke out of. I am seeking this piece.

This is the piece cut in half:

If this is not what the OP was referring to in 2004, then oops.

Anyway, sorry for the confusion

Taken from my cover I found in the trunk (I have Curt hitch) I'm glad they didn't toss it away.
Cheers.

Just to add in ETKA it's 7L6 807 087 L
Not sure what to believe now.

I entered both those part numbers at 1stvwparts.com and got nothing from them...but if you just enter your Touareg year the part is under rear bumper components and is called "cap." Looks like it is around $30.

 

[LOtouareg]

Thank you so much LocoLobo. That is exactly what I needed. I couldn't find it anywhere.

I place a couple raps of electricians tap on mine

 

[grohgreg]

x2. Wife found mine lying on the ground behind the car. Two wraps of electrical tape made it tight enough that I had to tap slightly to get it all the way in.
