WHY IT’S IMPORTANT TO LET US KNOW ABOUT ISSUES
Towbar Express holds patterns for over a thousand vehicle variations. Variations within the same model can occur for several reasons including country of origin, facelift changes and even changes in component suppliers by manufacturers. It is impossible for us to know every car type with every variation, so we emphasise the importance of receiving your feedback.
With your feedback we can identify these differences and update our database, this helps us provide you with the most comprehensive reference site for correct towbar selection available.
