Fixed flange towbars
Fixed flange towbars are strong and durable, making them suitable for heavy-duty pulling. They are typically the best fit for commercial and industrial applications. However, some customers may dislike the visible flange plate since it interferes with the appearance of the automobile when the towbar is not in use.

The type of socket that you need depends on what you are towing.
Whether you will be towing a caravan, a trailer or cycle carrier you will need some electrics fitted with your towbar.
STEP 3
Choose wiring options
Choose between universal or dedicated tow bar wiring options.
There are two ways to wire a tow bar.
On older vehicles, you can install both universal aftermarket wire and dedicated particular wiring, however some later vehicles only allow dedicated specific wiring to be installed.
Although universal wiring is typically less expensive, it is not always the best option. For example, universal wiring may not activate built-in safety mechanisms. All future new cars will require dedicated, specific wiring.
