E 60 tow bar detachable, your experiences please

[hman]

Am going to fit a detachable tow bar and need to know what experiences have been for visibility of the bar and electrics after fitting with ball removed.

Mine is a non m sport so doesn't have the diffuser which runs right under the rear, pics would be great and if anyone knows of a bar where the electrics swing up out of the way then even better.

Many thanks.

Hi,

I had a Westfalia detachable from Towequipe fitted, the bar and electrics were totally invisible, can heartily recommend it.

Same here. You need to buy a plastic blank for the SE saloon and paint it as the kit requires a small bumper cut. Fairly easy DIY job, but the electrics are a little more work due to the use of bus electrics on the E60. Finding a good earth in the back was also a PITA.

Battery no good for earth?
