    Default Towbar issues!

    Having problems with my towbar..
    When I bought the car it had a towbar, and it could be clipped off which i did but it still has the massive holder or metal bit underneath the fuel tank, now it has about 10 nuts/screws that have to be taken off.

    The problem is 2 of them are unreachable they are literally inbetween my rear lights inside the bumper/shell by the number plate.

    Im thinking ill have to get the mechanic to get rid of it, but does anyone know a way it can be gotten to?

    Mechanic...lol. If you cant get to the bolts with the rear bar on, take the rear bar off. If you dont know how to do that then just unbolt everything untill you get it off. lol.

    There are retaining nuts on the inside of the cargo compartment (wagon). Have a look in under the lip near where the jack is installed. I think that there are two nuts either side. Hope this helps.
