Hi,So thankfully I was able to get my hands on a towbar for this weekend so I can go and pick up my go kart  I was wondering if anyone had any tips for fitting it? I believe I am going to have to cut the bumper, has anyone else done this before? Also the wiring for the electrics  have any ideas?As always help much appreciated  ________________________________________ Phase 1 silver track car335i daily |

Your welcome ;-)I would place under the car and put a bolt through either side to support allowing it to swivel. Pull out under the bumper marking with a pencil/marker where the central point is and where you would need to cut! My bumper only needed the underside lip cut out so visually ok when I removed it! A dremal or drill with sand paper bit would take the bumper away quite quick. The wiring went into the drivers side rear light. ________________________________________ V6 Power!Faster I can go the better! Its not what you drive, its how you drive that wins the race! |

Don't mean to sound funny but I'm sure I read somewhere that the DIY fitting of tow bars has now been outlawed, and it's only supposed to be approved fitting centres now that fit them....... I may be wrong but worth checking is it not?? Just my 2p's worth......  ________________________________________ Team Running Engine again!Team Negative Camber! My Budget track engine build thread!

I found this: I get it apart from the fact that I wire both brake lights into one and then into the towbar wiring terminal? ________________________________________ Phase 1 silver track car335i daily |
