tow bar

I read some where that this label says whether the van is tow bar prepped or not Code 1D7 yes 1D70 no ( or something along those lines ) Mine is different and what is tow bar prepped anyway ? Ready for a kit by any chance ?

Really hate those little red keys, unpleasant to turn and you can't attach them to anything... Local locksmith done me proud and with a bit of extra filing we have a solution. :) Happy days. You can tell i have nothing better to do!

Can anyone recommend a tow bar installer in the Nottingham/ Derby area ? Looking to have a detachable swan neck fitted. Any info welcome and prices paid

Hi all, I am looking to add a bike rack to my T6, can anyone recommend one for a tailgate? My van also has a pop top, not sure if that affects things or not. Cheers Lee

Where is the cheapest place to get the foam inserts you need when fitting the Westfalia detachable tow bar. Just Kampers do them but it's £38 for the 2 needed !!!! Thought that was a bit pricey. Cheers

Hi, I have looked at the various threads relating to bike carrier & options - I come back to the same options - but just want to check I'm not missing anything... I'm after a Tow Bar mounted Bike Carrier - one that can carry 4 bikes and importantly can tilt so the barn doors can still be...

What are the general thoughts around bike carriers? I want to be able to transport 4 bikes, am I best going for the VW Gen type one that mounts to the roof or are tow bar type ones better. Id like to be able to have a spoiler on the roof which is why I am thinking of the tow bar one however I’m...

Any one know if this part of the tow bar comes off? Need to get it painted

Hi There, reaching out in case anyone seen one before ? We are just currently having our T28 van converted it is 2019 plate and was leased for 6 months only before we bought it. This box is under the engine and the VW dealership are not sure what it is and I cannot take it in yet but it is...

Hi All, Just got the van back from convertors, very happy and a bit of a build thread coming, but just wanted to double check i got everything back for the tow bar - not having overly paid much attention to it when it was bolted to the back of the van. Please could someone conform what should...

Had a westfalia detachable fitted by Gary at the Towbar Company yesterday. He’s based in Bournemouth but will travel. Very accommodating guy and very professional instal. Highlight recommended and can give his details on request. :thumbsup:

The box and bracket usually found under the drivers seat. Part number 1K0 907 383 H. From a 2017 Highline. Surplus to requirements. Comes with the bracket and screws that fix it under the seat. £30 delivered by Collect+

I’ve fitted my tow bar and now need to have the electrics coded. I’m waiting on a price from the dealer, but have seen on the forum that it’s possible to do this yourself. I’m assuming I need a box of some description along with software that connects to the ECU via the diagnostic port. What is...

As per the Westfalia detachable tow bar instructions I’ve purchased the polystyrene holder and strap. Holder is 7h0804897a @ £23.06 and strap 7h0867749 @ £23.60. I have two observations:- 1) the holder is bagged and appears to also contain a strap. Do I need two straps? All I can think of is...

Hi I’m looking to buy a westfalia fixed or detachable tow-bar for my T6 2017 T32 highline Kombi SWB but unsure which model number/code is the correct one. Please can anyone advise on this matter. Many thanks Pete

Hi - I couldn't find answers to these questions but apologies if it's covered elsewhere. My wife and I have a 20-month old and we've decided to upgrade our beloved 2007 barn door 2.5 TDi T5 conversion to a new or nearly new (2019/8 plate) California Ocean. I'm looking for advice in three areas...

Hi There , I red all the towbar treads but didnt found those few answers. I bought a genuine vw towbar kit for a T6 2015 , it seems to be the same as the westfalia . The connection to the front fusebox ,the point 17 in the instructions, is it supposed to remove the camber 30 or the camber 22...

Just so you're aware, the small component parts listed on the PFJones website as additional requirements for the Westfalia detachable towbar fitment. listed as washers etc; From VW they are £50!!!! Think of this before you order! My Towbar arrived this morning, I'll hopefully be fitting it on...

I'm looking into towbar electrics and have come across the 7pin or 13pin loom choice.... I plan on towing a small bike carrier with storage box as below.... (thanks for the idea @Dieseldonkey which I came across on here...) I think I only need a 7pin loom for this, but is it wise or even...

My van has a PFjones intergrated wiring kit and it's been fine for 18months. I brought a brand new Brian James car trailer and decided to change the side marker bulbs to LED ones (cheap from China). After about 30mins, both LED bulbs had blown. I replace them quickly with the original bulbs and...
