07 1.6 - towbar fitting. - Triple A
Hello All,

Commitee member of the GTO/3000GT club here (so if anyone has any GTO related questions I will be happy to answer them to trade for some information!)

My father has recently bought a Nissan Note 1.6

He's very happy with the car - but wants to put a towbar on it (light towing only - the kerb weight is too low for much else).

Looking at the internet there are plenty of towbars available for the car - problem is that they all require cutting of the bumper to fit.

This is unacceptable to my dad - and I to agree (amacks of lazy design - or just a cheap solution).

If anyone knows of a towbar that will fit his car without needing to cut the bumper I would very much appriciate a link.


Thanks in advance.

Adam

Sometimes when the say cut to fit the cut is not visible until you look under the car its due to the fact the plastic bumber goes under the car and there is no other way for the towball to come out.If you look on the towequipe web site it shows whether a bumber needs cutting to fit and also if it shows.
