Anyone got a trailer hitch on a 2000 and 2001?

Hello
I have got a second hand trailer hitch for my '01 9-3 5 door.
The local service department said I needed some reinforcing plates between the bumper and the body.
Thanks to JerryC I now have instructions for 2 different OEM hitches.
Both bolt to the front side of the bumper with 3 bolts.
One bolts to the body with 4 bolts in a straight line, the other bolts to
the body with 2 bolts under the spare tire.
The 4 bolt hitch instructions show the 2 bumper reinforcements that the
mechanic mentioned.
The 2 bolt hitch instructions show no bumper reinforcements.
So now I know that the hitch I have (2 bolts) is not missing any parts but I'm no sure if it's meant for an '01 car.
I suspect that the 2 bolt hitch is for the next generation 900 and the
early (1999?)9-3.
Can someone with a '00 or '01 9-3 check their hitch and let me know if it has 4 bolts or 2 bolts?
