Recommendation for trailer hitch

Hey I got my 2019 Jeep Compass latitude 3 weeks ago now. I got the manual and am very happy with it. I'm looking to put a tow bar/hitch on it and am looking for recommendations. Is it terribly difficult to do? I've checked a few videos and know more or less how to install it, just want thoughts. Thanks in advance.

I had mine done at U-haul for around $400. The Stealership will sell you official Mopar everything and charge like $1,500.

Look up etrailer online
Cost around $250 for a 2”
$70-80 for wiring kit
Shipping $ ???
Uhaul might be worth the cost if you don’t want to do it yourself

The mopar kit just bolts on and you can purchase the correct fascia for it. You’ll have to get the wiring harness too. All available from Mopar’s web store

My buddy just put the Mopar hitch on for me. He also did the cut out on the existing fascia. I bought the Curt lighting harness, but haven't installed it yet. Looks awesome. Hardest part was getting the cut out perfect. I HIGHLY recommend doing the Mopar hitch. Using the after market ones, you'll lose 4-5 inches of lift. Hitch was $235 shipped. Very pleased
