MiniDoMore Hitch installation

Some time ago I bought a used MiniDoMore hitch, model # 1002, for my 2004 R53. I plan to install it in the near future. I have the manufacturer's installation instructions. Any words of wisdom from someone who has 'been there done that?"

Just did this a couple of weeks ago. Was pretty straight forward. My car is lowered and I did it on the ground. Still only took about a hour. Get some extra expanding rivets. Most of mine broke out. While you are there, check the wires for the bumper lights. Mine has chaffed to bare copper.
