Towbar

Hi all,

I ordered my 13 pin kit from towequipe for £100 but this did not include the extra loom and relay etc you need to connect up the fridge and charger although on the website it says the £100 kit is all you need.  The pins 9 &10 connected on the 13 pin socket terminates to an open plug this is where the extra loom connects onto for your battery feed and relay i could have snipped the plug off and used other connections plus purchase a relay but decided to keep it all tidy

 

I contacted towequipe and they said i needed to purchase the extra kit at £25 they agreed to give me discount and waved the postage

 

As mentioned earlier i have just fitted my westfalia detachable towbar and must say it has been the easiest and most straight forward towbar i have fitted.  I am not a towbar fitter but like to do things myself and have fitted the towbars to my previous cars.

 

The hardest bit was taking the bumper off but that was me being cautous when pulling the bumper away from the sides but if your fitting it yourself just be confident and pull it you won't break any lugs.  In the instructions you get a template for notching out a piece of the silver valance but i ignored that and refitted the bumper with no problem so no cuts.

 

Cheers 

 

HOWEVER as others have said the cut-out recommended is FAR TOO BIG!!! You only need a cut out the size of an aerosol cap!!
