towbar

Hi, I am about to get a detachable towbar fitted to my 2006 E220 Estate, but have been told that I need specific electical connections into the can-bus system and that someone will need to access the cars electronics to tell the car a towbar has been fitted. Has anyone fitted a detachable...

Hi I have recently purchased an ML270 (2003) and was wondering about a towbar. Is there any chance that it is exists under the bumper and all I need to do is buy the detachable piece or will I need to start with a full installation - either way any experiences, recommendations or costs would...

Hi all, I have recently brought off ebay a towbar for my 99 w210 (with rust) :crazy: Its a genuine MB product so it too comes complete with rust as well :D , however all that aside, looking underneath the rear bumper and offering the towbar up to it, there is space for it, but for the life of...

Has anybody got the fitting instructions for the original MB (Oris) towbar for a 124 estate or at least some pics ?? Can't find where the 2 "sidearms" go for a start...:confused:

We've got the Oris tow-bar fitted to our E320 with the Euro style 13 pin socket. When hooked up to the van there is no audible warning that the indicators are working and - as far as we can see - no visual warning either. This seemingly is illegal!! Any one know whether the W124 tow-bar...

Any one know if the 13 pin socket fitted onto the OEM towbar (made by Oris) on a W124 estate has pin 8 connected to the reversing lights as per the standard??? We just connected our caravan up to test it out and the reverse lights didn't work on the van. Checked the adapter lead and the pins...

We're having trouble getting a replacement for the missing demountable section of the towbar on our '94 E320 estate. The ident. plate on the fixed section carries the following information: ORIS TypOris: E240/1 Prufz~M: 4398 Werk Zul Stutzlast: 75 Kg D.Wert: 11?1 Kn (third digit is...

Anyone got the following parts they would like to sell? Please PM me if so... (1) Panel that covers towbar mounting on the rear bumper, with the hole already cut in so that it can be fitted even when the towbar is in place. Must be for facelift model and in Brilliant Silver. Please note I...

I'm looking for a towbar for my 2001 E class estate... Does anyone have a surplus one which they might sell? Thanks John

I've searched but this is all I found... http://mbclub.co.uk/forums/showthread.php?t=7143&highlight=towbar+wiring OK, I'm going to fit my genuine MB towbar, possibly tomorrow. The electrics question bothers me a little. I reckon I should be able to make my own bypass system either by...

I was chatting to my dAd last night, he told me that he had just bought a new c180k {silver of course}, and went on to explain the deal he had struck up as they had wanted to move on this car and bolster the sales figures etc. Anyway he did raise the subject of negotiating a towbar. They...

As above... Since spotting that my W210 can tow braked trailers up to something like 2,100kg I want to get myself a towbar. Has anyone got one for sale? I'm guessing that these are expensive from the dealers... Thanks for looking :), Ian.
