Hi dandy
Is there any drilling/holes already there, etc.

Easy fit
I have fitted them to Fords, Sierra/Mondeo, but didn't want to mess up the Bongo.
Cheers

i have a towsure towbar that you cannot see behind the bumper, and yes you have to drill a hole through the floor at the rear of the bongo,but it is under the plastic strip ,so cannot be seen after the strip is replaced.

Hi,
I had a towsure fitted yesterday whilst some other stuff was being done. I think they had one hole to drill up through the floor for an extra securing rod. Rest fitted into existing holes.
I will take a picture later if that helps but from memory you can only see the flange and towball that's it, rest is hidden behind bumper. Looks a very substantial towbar and seemed well made and painted. I will probably waxoil it as well to be sure.
Let me know if you want a picture.
Andy

Our A1 Towbar kit came painted black already... so surely it doesn't need to be Hammerited before installation?
