E30 325i Rag-Top 2923 Report post Posted September 29, 2010 This may be a very silly question, but how does it attach to the car? Don't you need another big hunk of steel that bolts up under the bumper and to the boot floor somehow? Also, what is weight rating on this? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
simke 0 Report post Posted September 29, 2010 (edited) You'll need to have a frame already installed on your car where you can plug this in. Will post up weight ratings when I get home - don't have them here with me. Edited September 29, 2010 by Simke Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
E30 325i Rag-Top 2923 Report post Posted September 30, 2010 Why are you only selling the removable tongue & ball? It's not much use without the other bit. Technically the weight ratings would only apply when the two parts are together, if used seperately they are not certified. Unlikely to be picked up on it, but you never know...

simke 0 Report post Posted September 30, 2010 Well don't have the other bit anymore so... maybe there is someone out there who already has a frame and wants the tongue. Frame itself can be used for to attach number of things, like towbar, bike rack, etc. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
elmarco 56 Report post Posted September 30, 2010 For reference, when I was looking for one a while back I think Best Bars quoted me about $45 for the tongue alone (new)... Think you might be lucky to get what you are asking for it. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
simke 0 Report post Posted September 30, 2010 Ah fair enough, had no idea what it would be worth. I'll change the price Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
elmarco 56 Report post Posted October 1, 2010 (edited) Give them a call and get a price for a new tongue.... You might also find that as they make the OEM towbars that the tongue fits other makes as well and you can widen your market EDIT: "get a price for tongue" - WTF kind of forum is this???
