FITTING INSTRUCTIONS:

1. Remove the metal and plastic bumper section from the vehicle. To do
this, drill out the four rivets on the left and right from the wheel arches.
The plastic bumper section should be removed using some force.
If the vehicle has a large plastic bumper fitted, as is shown in fig. 1 (extra
option), the fasteners should be removed at the points indicated by
arrows in fig. 1. You will have to use some force to remove the bumper.
Undo the rearmost exhaust mount. Gain access to the left and right
chassis through the rear panel using a chisel. The places in the panel to
be opened are indicated with indentations.
2. Slide brackets A and B into the left and right chassis members and
attach these using the original fasteners at points C (including metal
inner section). Remove the sealant from the points where the tow bar
contacts the chassis. Fit the tow bar in place, sliding plate D between
tow bar and vehicle on the left.
3. Fasten the tow bar using two M10x40 bolts with flat and spring washers
at points E. Fasten the tow bar using two M10x30 bolts with flat and
spring washers at points F. Fasten the detached exhaust mount using
two M8x25 bolts with spring washers and nuts at points H. Tighten all
nuts and bolts to the values given in the table. Refit the plastic bumper
section. Fit the rivets supplied in the holes where the rivets were drilled
out. For models with a totally plastic bumper, the fasteners should be
refitted at the points shown in fig. 1.
