tow bar good and cheap
Hi Mike
Have just bought and fitted a terrano 11 towbar from "towbarman" off e-bay he sells many types but the one to go for if your mate doesn't mind getting his hands dirty is the towequipe model current price £93.87 inc vat and delivery tell him to also buy the specific wiring kit at the same time price £9.99 if he gets the two together,this then just plugs in. Fitting is then straightforward as long as he takes his time. good luck |

Thanks for the replies! Pathfinder? When I go hunting for pathfinder towbars all I seem to find is 05 onwards? Is that likely to be the one?
Nice to see another Mac entrant! Do I dare admit you will see me and the missus in a rather tatty yellow erm *cough land rover *cough Cheers, Mike |

And T2 towbars won't fit as far as I know - the R3M is a monocoque construction and so has no seperate chassis like the T2 does, so the fitment will be completely different I believe. |

I didnt realise it was monocoque - thats that then! This could be a bit of a challenge! CHeers for your help, looks like ebay.com.au? postage might be a bit pricey though...

Mike theres someone on ebay breaking an r3m - i've mailed him to ask if it had a towbar. don't chase him cos he'll think theres competition and jack the price up - i'll let you know what he says.
