How easy to fit tow bar
So I have got a new puma coming. How easy and cheap is it to fit a tow bar?

Get a dealer fitted one? They usually come with them.Mines came for free.I didn't order it with one.

Or go get a genuine one yourself. Half and hour work. Not sure where the looms joins though.

7 pin electrics is normally very straightforward via a connector in O/S rear wheel arch

13 pin electrics more complex as wires have to be taken to front of vehicle

this might prove interesting reading.

I'm afraid not, apparently the support arms are different. Good luck with your search, there are many companies out there who sell this sort of "take off" part so shouldn't be too hard to find.

Thanks for the offer James. You're VERY local to me - probably within 5 miles Smile Do you use Harwood Crawley or Pulborough?
