FAQ’s
The majority of the towbars we sell are fitted by us at our Leeds workshop. You could fit the towbar yourself and, as long as you understand vehicle electrical systems and have the necessary equipment, there is nothing to stop you fitting the tow bar yourself as everything comes with the towbar and tow kit for fitting and wiring.
