Title: The VX towbar loom...
Post by: PaulW on 11 September 2008, 21:19:48

Am I right in thinking that it plugs into an existing plug behind the bumper, so no need to mess about with running any more cabling through the car?

Part number 90566379 (HARNESS ASSY, TRAILER COUPLING) is what I'm looking at here, but do I also need 90491573 (HARNESS ASSY, LICENCE PLATE LAMP) aswell?

Cheers

If you remove the plastic panel at the rear of the boot (it hides the boot lock) you'll see a connector tucked away on the driver's side about 1/2 way between the centre of the car and the side. All the signals you need are here, but you will need to bridge the pins on the connector for the brake light failure sensor to make the brake light signal work.
