qube 3568 Report post Posted May 19, 2014 Yes it does fit. Usually through a small hole through the rear bumper. U can also get one custom made to go under the bumper as well. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rowans17 19 Report post Posted May 19, 2014 I had a 94 325 which i had a tow bar fitted to. Was about $300 for a Christchurch firm to do, not including an elec connection. Quite a simple process took them about 2 hours to fit it. ^went under the bumper. No cutting required. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Neal 512 Report post Posted May 19, 2014 From memory 550 kg unbraked / 1200 braked. Had one on my 325i . Got mine fitted via the dealer. Was a tidy locally built job. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Looks like yours has the same problem mine has; the towing weight is turning the tow bar about the fulcrum point and pushing the floor of the boot (where the spare tyre goes) upwards!! The floor of the tyre well is where the 'bar is bolted onto! Check the angle of the tongue and ball, it has moved rearwards and down! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
