SRowell's Saab 9-3 Aero 2.8 V6 Turbo
#44
Update. Needed a tow bar for towing the boat about. Had to pick up the boat at 6am. Started fitting the towbar at 3pm and finished at 7.30. Many hours. Easily spent 2.5 hours trying to remove the rear bumper. It is very difficult to find guides for even simple things like removing the rear bumper. Anyway eventually I got that off and the rest was a doddle but not after cutting my hand open. Classic slipping with a screwdriver and catching my hand on the sharp boot edge.

Cutting the bumper was also an issue as the instructions lied and its currently touching the tow bar so Ill have to get the dremel out and cut even more out! Electrics were super easy as I opted to get the plug and play kit.

Anyway its a nice swan neck towbar not the flange type I had on the 306. Its removable with two bolts If I ever want to hide it. Cost me £180 for the full kit instead of the £440 I was quoted to have it fitted at a specialist.
