The OpenSourceEV Parts Hitch Receiver Storage Box V2.5 is a snap-in storage solution that fits directly inside the towing hitch receiver on your Rivian R1S or R1T. Designed, manufactured, and supported by OpenSourceEV, tested in Rivian vehicles, and built to hold up on real-world trips. Sits completely hidden under the OEM hitch cover when not in use.
Unlike gear rattling around your frunk or bed, this keeps small essentials -- cash, cards, a spare key, a multi-tool, or a small flashlight -- right at the hitch and completely out of sight. Slides in, snaps into place, and disappears under the cover.
What Makes This Different
-
Snap-In Retention: Reinforced side clips snap the box securely into the hitch receiver without bolts, straps, or adhesives. Press gently on the clips, slide in, and it locks.
-
Slide-Top Lid: Redesigned lid stays closed when you need it closed and stops at the groove when open so it doesn't fall off.
-
OEM Cover Compatible: Fits cleanly under the factory Rivian hitch cover. Completely hidden when the cover is on.
-
Stronger Build: V2.5 adds reinforced side panels and an overhauled clip system versus V2.0 -- stronger, smoother, and more structurally sound.
-
Open Source Design: Design files are publicly available under Creative Commons NC-SA 4.0 for personal use and remix.
