Hi Guys,

 

has anyone completed a step by step guide to tow bard fitting on a hatchback VRS? I am fairly confident with the fitting of the bar itself but unsure on the cutting of the bumper for the tow ball and the wiring.

 

If anyone could lend assisitance it would be appreicated

 

Thanks in advance

It is so long back that I fitted my bar, that I am unsure of my recollections - but, I recall that there is a moulded outline on the inside of the bumper for the necessary hole. If you have not looked yet, I am fairly sure that the PF Jones website gives you access to the detailed fitting instructions which makes it all clear. From memory it was all pretty straightforward.

did you fit a dedicated wiring kit or did you use the universal wiring kit with a bypass relay? Having spoke to a tow bar specilaist theyve sugeested that this way is not recomended.

 

any ideas?

There's a whole load of sophisticated software to make towing safer in these cars, don't miss the coding out which can only be done with the dedicated wiring loom
