Does your tow hitch look empty and dull when you're not towing your caravan? Give your vehicle a unique and aggressive look with this DIY skull tow hitch cover! This design looks great as a simple, standalone cover, or it can be upgraded into an impressive lighting accessory with glowing LED eyes.

Design Features:

Anti-Theft Mounting: To prevent theft, the skull is designed to be assembled from back to front using a hidden M3 screw and an M3 heat-set threaded insert. (Note: Depending on the clearance with your bumper, a short screwdriver or Allen key is required for installation).
Perfect Alignment: Three integrated alignment pins and slots ensure the two halves of the skull fit together seamlessly and flawlessly.
Spacious Interior for Electronics: There is plenty of room inside the skull to route wiring and place two 5mm LEDs directly into the eye sockets.
Optional LED Lighting Setup:

If you want to illuminate the eyes:

Power Source: You can draw 12V power directly from the parking light pin on your trailer wiring harness/socket.
Wiring: Connect the two 5mm LEDs in series using a 470-ohm resistor.
Customization: You can wire them to your parking lights, brake lights, turn signals, or a combination of them to create your desired effect.
Safety Tip: While the vehicle's main fuse provides basic short-circuit protection, I highly recommend adding a 5A inline fuse to your custom wiring for extra safety.
