Default XC90 Detachable Towbar

For sale
I have for sale a Westfalia detachable ball tow bar complete with Volvo "plug & play" 13 pin electrics.
It is just over 8 months old and in as new condition. Complete with installation manuals for both the bar and the electrics. Dead easy to fit, simple to wire up with full wiring capability i.e. Caravan Fridge and Battery charge etc
Looking for £225 ono
Collection only from Wetherby in West Yorkshire. Ideally would like it gone for the weekend.
PM me if interested - Thanks

Hi Elbond

Sorry, can't send you a PM until I do 30 posts for some reason.

We may be interested as we are in the market for one. Sorry, don't know a lot about towbars and electrics, but I have some questions please.

1. Does this come supplied with Volvo electrics or universal?
2. Does this require specialist fitting? We're not good with vehicle electrics.
3. Does the bumper need to be cut?
4. Do you know if it's compatible with a 2005 XC90?
4. Why are you selling it please?

We're in Manchester so it's not too far.

Cheers
Ged

Hi Ged
The electirics are Volvo genuine parts and simple to fit -literally one earth wire to bolt to an existing stud terminal next to battery and then one multi plug into the fuse board situated in the rear quarter panel - simple as that. All the instructions are included, took me about 20mins to complete.
You will need to cut a slight semi circle out of the Silver portion of the plastic under shield to allow the receptor to sit flush. The cut cannot be seen without laying on the floor.
I presume it's compatible with a 2005 model as the installation instructions are for 2004 onwards.
I'm selling because I'm changing cars tomorrow and my new one comes with the tow bar already fitted.
Regards
Derek
