In this video we carry out a full towbar installation - including wiring up a universal electrics kit - covering each step of the job in detail. The end result is an extremely useful addition to our car (Nissan Qashqai) and the total cost was just £138 ($176 USD)
DIY Towbar Installation Steps:
1: Remove Bumper
2: Remove Towbar Mounting Point Covers
3: Fit Towbar & Brackets (Keep All Fasteners Loose Until Everything Is In Position & Threads Engaged)
4: Torque All Fasteners
5: Fit Towbar Electrics
6: Test With Trailer Lighting Board
7: Reinstall Covers & Bumper

Hey Chris , you made me laugh with the name on the ball hitch cover, I had to rewind it and you made me laugh even more, those types of things tickle me and your face when explaining it was even funnier, and by the way...great video, keep up the good work........

Thanks mate, I can't see the logo / brand without making that connection, but perhaps that's just me... That's a nice bike in your profile pic by the way. 👍

@@christopher_barr thanks Chris, that bike is a nice bike, it looks nice because it gets all the looks, but the low down its not nice to ride, has massive power but not comfy, ive just sold it and my Yamaha and just bought 3 new ones, a CB1000R, CBR650R, and a Husqvarna TE250I, all very nice to ride....

Hi man. Will this fit 2011 Nissan Qashqai too? Very informative video. Thanks a lot!!

Good job! Just wondering if it’s possible to just change the 13 pin socket thing? Mine got water in it and caused it to short I think. Basically it caused the cars reverse lights to go on permanently, even with engine off and locked with the key fob. I had to just disconnect it

Hi, can a universal tow bar be fitted onto these? It looks like it goes in the middle, as opposed to the wide corners?

Hi Noelio! We have a Mirror Dinghy in the UK and I hope for us to use it as a family and also to do some little solo overnight camping trips. The Bavaria will take us places too, God willing. Cheers, Chris 👍
