Thats a good price JamesJ, they just quoted me £268.44. How long ago did you manage to get that price and was it direct?

Thanks

Try these guys http://www.towbarsdirect.co.uk/ they work out cheaper than going direct to TowTrust for some strange reason...

Agreed on this - when I got a TowTrust fitted to the FFRR, the fitter wasn't impressed tha I could get the kit delivered cheaper via them than he could as a trade purchase. Laughing
 D4 XS, gone, much loved, never forgotten

a security plate would clearly slow a theft up...not designed as anti theft..but just to stop it coming off whilst going along...add in wheel protector scenario...headlight brackets...how far do we go in stopping the blighters

Well thanks all. I took the tip and ordered from towbarsdirect, which was indeed lower cost than direct. So hopefully next week it will arrive and I will be back in operation once more.

Thanks all

Lake, fill in your profile details for the car and if (who am I kidding Laughing ) WHEN you have any issues in future it'll be easier to help Thumbs Up

If you're fitting the Towtrust to a D4 it's slightly different to a D3...
