tow bar fitting advice needed
 
Hi Guy's

I would like a detachable tow bar on the 8 and wandered how easy it is or what is involved in fitting a Descreet one ?

Remove bumper, remove bumper bar, add to bar, route cables, fit bumper, locate best place for the towing module, add power and canbus cables and code.
Done.

That's what it was when I fitted the Touareg tow bar.
I can't see the 8 being any different if you get a decent wiring loom you should not need to tape in to any of the lights.

I think I saw that being used in the mega-wheelbarrow section of the World's Strongest Man contest..... :-(

Nope, judging by the reflections in the bumper they're really there!

Shocking

Each to their own and all that, but that is a disaster, hope it's none of ours?

EDIT Just clocked the number plate. Scott? Really?

Yes its mine and they are real.

They are not fitted yet.
They was only placed over the exciting pipes for a laugh.
