I would suggest calling the mfg. of the hitch.
JC, thanks.
I'm planning on making my own trailer hitch and I have an '09 and my neighbor has a '16. If my hitch would fit his, I could make two at once, but if they're different, I may only make my own and be done with it.
It's going to be a hidden type hitch similar to this.

I have access to our OMAX water jet and we have different thicknesses of SS in stock. I also have SS wire for my MIG as well as SS rod for my TIG. I'm not new to fabricating, so other than getting it to fit, it shouldn't be too hard. Also a few evenings of tinkering on the hitch saves me $300. Granted, I'll probably have $20 in materials, but as long as I'm having fun designing etc, I'm not counting my time. It's a hobby and time well spent in my book.
I do see that FBI has the following listed.

With the same years excluding the CVO models per year, I would guess it has something to do with the tail lights and fender filler strips etc.
So more than likely what I design for my '09 will NOT fit his '16.
I should have done more research first, sorry.
