How to remove the rear bumper & fit a towbar

Featured Replies

Hi folks,

This guide may be of use if your going to fit your own towbar or need to remove the rear bumper. It applies to the estate model but the hatch should be similar.

I'll be doing this next week when the towbar I ordered arrives. The wiring kit is more troublesome than the towbar to fit. The one I got has a couple of wires to be run to the front fuse box. It does plug in everywhere else though and is compatible with the canbus electronics on the car.

The guide here: Octavia-vRS.com - Octavia II Estate Towbar Install covers how to deal with the wiring kit as well.
