| | Applies to cars without spare wheel Detach the rubber grommet and measure the horizontal distance from the edge of the hole.
Note!
Check that there are no cable harnesses obstructing the hole drilling process. |
Measure out for drilling a hole for the screw for the towball holder, and drill out the hole with a Ø8 mm (5/16 ") diameter drill bit. Deburr the edges of the hole, apply rustproofing agent and remove the drill swarf. Reinstall the rubber grommet.

| | Applies to cars with twin rear silencers. Remove the screws in the rear mountings on the right and left-hand sides of the silencers and lower down to the stop.
Applies to cars with single rear silencer Remove the screw in the rear mounting on the left-hand side of the silencer and lower down to the stop.

|
| | Now angle the silencer and radiation shield down to gain optimum accessibility to the holes for mounting the towing member. Measure out a distance of 70 mm (2¾") from the centre in the embossing on the insides of the side members and backwards on the protective tape covering the mounting holes for the towing member. Cut off the protective tape and discard the long rear section.

|
| | Check that the contact surfaces inside the side members are clean, if not, clean them opposite where the towing member's side plates shall be tightened. Take the towing member from the kit and insert the two side plates in the holes in the rear edge of the side members.
|

|
| | Take screws and the reinforcement bar from the kit. Get assistance to hold and adjust the position of the towing member when the screws are tightened into the towing member's weld nuts. The silencer and deflector plate need to be pressed down to allow the screws and reinforcement bar to be positioned and torque tightened. Tighten the screws alternately on both sides.
|
| | IMG-249374 |
|
| | Tighten the screws to 90 Nm (66.5 lbf.ft.) and angle tighten to 60°. When angle tightening screwed joints in a confined spaces, a protractor, applied to the torque wrench, cannot be used. A hex head screw is used to determine the turning angle instead. Make a mark on the screw head flange (1). Make a second mark (2) on the reinforcement bar. Now tighten the screw so that the screw head marking (1) lines up with the marking (2) on the reinforcement bar. Repeat for all screws.

|
| | Reinstall the heat deflector plate and the rear mountings for the silencer. Torque tighten the mounting screws to 50 Nm (37 Lbf.ft.). Carry out the equivalent operation on the right-hand side for cars with double rear silencer.

| | Take the ball holder, ball, washer, nut, lock bolt and locking pin from the kit. Insert the ball holder in the towing ball's square bracket until the holes in the ball holder and square bracket correspond. Slide the locking bolt into the hole. Lock the other side using the locking pin. Position the ball in the hole on the ball holder. Install the washer and nut. Torque tighten to 244 Nm (180 lbf.ft.).
