bmw.maniac 1 Report post Posted February 14, 2011 So Dad has given me the nice holiday task of finding out about getting a towbar on his '01 530i and organising/overseeing/doing it. He has found a towbar at some random wreckers, minus wiring loom. Can someone please explain to me what exactly is required for the complete towbar in an e39? I have searched RealOEM but can't find any diagrams or part numbers. Does anyone have any bits or complete setups they would like to sell?

hybrid 1040 Report post Posted February 14, 2011 There are three ways to go about it. The OEM route which is pretty expensive all up. Needed: Rear bumper carrier, lighting tow module, swan neck tow ball, wiring harness. This uses rebranded Westfalia parts The Westfalia route You can by a full kit for motorsport and non-msport and touring models Or the Best bars route as glenn suggested was which is fairly cheap however they're not removible and dont look very OEM once installed.
