Default Tow prep package question

Hey guys. I'm looking to put a hitch on my wife's 2010 RX350 AWD, but I'm having trouble finding hard evidence on how to tell if I has a tow prep package. I did look in the fender well on the drivers side and it looks like it has some sort of cooler in there. (Assume tranny)

Is there any other way to tell if it has been tow prepped?

That is a good question. I have the tow package on my 2012. It is listed on the sticker that came with the RX when I bought it new.

Believe if you have vents on the drivers side wheel well, they are there because of the tranny cooler and therefore, tow prep package.

Look in the fuse box under the hood. Mine did not come tow-prepped (I did not want it), so there were 2 fuses missing for tow equipment.
