I've recently fitted a tow bar and a full "dedicated" electrics kit to my 2012 S212 and expected it to need coding on Star for everything to work correctly, the Westfalia kit said it was needed.
However it seems that everything works as far as lighting is concerned, even the trailer bulb...

Hi all. I am looking for a towbar to fit my 2002 S210 E320 estate. I am not sure if there is a "plug and play" type system on my car, not sure where to look for the plug/socket, but anyway I need to get a bracket and then worry about the wiring.
