Tow Bar Services in Fair Oak. Small independent but price competitive when I have used them.

Towsure by Northam Bridge are pretty good, I hear. My old man got his Landy done there a couple of years back and it was a pretty tidy job.

They're actually not that difficult to fit yourself really, depending on how happy you are with doing DIY work in general. I did ours on the Bora and it took a couple of hours all told, including the wiring, and it was the first time I'd attempted it. We just got one off eBay, think it was about £80. Look out for the ones that you don't have to cut any bodywork as they are a little easier to do, although if you do have to cut it, it's only a small nick out of the underside of the bumper.

They fitted the bar to my 3 Series and did an excellent job a full £1000 less than BMW themselves!

May not be the nearest, but just the other side of Portsmouth in Horndean, there is Phil Taylor Towbars. They have done in excess of 20 for me now, really good service and pricing

I had a towbar done by these guys

http://www.hodgesautolec.co.uk/

They were recommended to me. Detachable towbar was around £375 on an Audi. The non-detachable version was around £300

I must have had circa 50 bars fitted by towbar services and never had a complaint, use them!
