If you're looking for a good hitch, the Draw-tight is much better built than the Saab factory hitch, goes on easy, and is almost unseen when installed. This hooks onto the rear sub-frame itself, not the bumper. I've heard both sides on which is more safe, but all just personal opinions. The Saab one doesn't let the bumper collapse as well, the Draw-tight doesn't restrict this. If hit low enough (below the bumper) the Draw-tight could effect collapse of the rear sub-frame. I did the Draw-tight one on my 04 SW a month ago, very easy. I've used the Saab factory ones in the past, and they're fine for small, light trailers, but I needed something more substantial for a tandem axle boat trailer.
If you're interested, I have a new Draw-tight sitting in the box, never installed (long story, was going to put it on a second car that I don't have now).
