Some maufacturers seem to take a different approach, installing a towbar as an extra item to the original beam:

I've taken the plunge, just ordered a Volvo electric towbar, managed to get a10% discount + a number plate. Having it fitted on Friday, fitting time is 2 hours.

I have read on here that one or two owners believe that you just sit in car and activate trailer light check, this is wrong, you still have to visually check them. You are supposed to activate it then turn off engine and walk to the back of the trailer and observe the lights coming on to see if they all work. The lights come on in sequence, rear lights, brake lights indicators etc. The trailer light check system is there so you can check lights single handed. |

I have not read anything about that or tried it on my XC90, I will try that next time I use it, if I leave my van hitched up to car I always set my remote operated motor mover onto the wheels (its not lever operated) which acts like a very effective brake locking the wheels and I arm the caravan alarm which has a movement sensor and tracker.
