Title: Fitting a towbar
Post by: ftp on October 02, 2008, 04:51:12 pm

Can't get much more inside my van so i want the option of towing an industrial vac for gutters. I've nearly fitted the bar and will need to do the electrics. Anyone done this on a despatch/expert? Wondering how straightforward it is - where to connect and whether the wiring is of the normal type?

I had the same problem. I had one fitted pro. They wired the electrics into the nearside rear light cluster of my expert, along with a bleeper for when I am indicating. I didn't take a lot of notice, sorry. It cost £160 fitted.

well it is if its done DIY, im not sure about how the pro's do it, i wouldnt think they cut into the loom, a bit too risky
