Default Trailer hitch?

I snuck over from the C6 Forum to see if anybody in the Austin, Tx. area with a C5 has a trailer hitch mounted that I could look at. No manufacturer has a hitch for the C6 yet and I would like to see if I could modify a C5 hitch to fit. The manufacturers of the C5 hitches have "typical" pictures that are of a general bolt on hitch and none of them have installation instructions on-line.

Anybody in Austin that has a hitch on a C5 PM me or E-Mail me at haljensen1@yahoo.com

Thanks
