    They are all aftermarket. I have one on my NB that came with the car, but I'll never use it. Wonder if it works as chassis bracing..

    You can definitely get an aftermarket hitch. I would recommend purchasing one from a retailer as they can select the correct hitch for your year whereas someone off of craigslist might not know. Plus you get warranty! Which is a bonus in my opinion haha

    I checked out Hitchweb which is where I got my hitch, and got as far as here: Mazda Miata MX-5 Trailer Hitches Just select your year and then you will be good to go!

    Here's a write up I did on my FM hitch.
    It's been great so far.

    BTW: Looking at previous posts, Sweetsally sounds like a sales person for a hitch company, no? ;)
