Fixing to flat tow a car soon so looking at trailer hitch and wiring options.

Trailer hitch: The aftermarket offerings are all Class 1 with 1.25" receivers. Anyone know of a 2" receiver for these cars? Doubtful but it would be preferred.

Wiring for lights: Can anyone confirm for me that Volvo's adapter alone will give my car a working 4-pin trailer wiring plug?
Example: https://www.volvopartswebstore.com/products/Cable-Harness-kit/1146714/31257590.html

It appears to be more or less plug and play but there's other parts on the diagram for modules that require dealer programming... I'm not about to shell out that kind of cash. I'll go full aftermarket at that point, cheesy T-tap connectors and all.

Thanks!

-Will
