Cost effective way - Go to local LR dealer and ask for a quote....................... go to the folks they farm the job out to and ask for a quote then calculate how much fuel and time will cost you to get there and back and apply to both sums......................... then go back to the local LR dealer and ask if they can match the price of the guy that does the jobs for them. How can carbon have a footprint, it has no feet?

I have had removable towbar fitted to my FR2 when supplied new and I am pleased with the fitting. It does have the land Rover Plate on it so I expect it to be covered under warranty. The twin electrics were also of LR make and couple up to the FR2's electrics so the dashboard light shows when the indicators are working. If you go for a generic make they may not use the genuine LR electrics and the dashboard light will not work.

Hi Grimbo, I presume you are saying that the "LR" Towbar is manufactured by brink? I hope so, if I reqiure a new Quick release swan neck in the future I will not have to buy the whole Towbar kit again!

Hi PJW, Yes the detachable towbar supplied to me and fitted by LR is manufactured by Brink, so the detachable bar should be available to purchase seperately if required. As far as the 13 pin electrical socket goes - yes a definite improvement and much less hassle with only one cable. I modified the wiring on my caravan and changed the cable over to suit the 13 pin system. Easy enough to do and so far everything works great. The thirteen pin plug and socket are so much better engineered than the old 12 N & S plugs with less chance of water ingress etc.. |
