Hi again,

I'm probably going to need a tow bar and I got a quote from a mechanic workshop in Tyreso - 11000 SEK to buy it and fit it - electronics included. Do you reckon this is a reasonable price?

Also, sligthly off topic: anyone know when is the next get together? Unfortunately I won't be able to attend the Summer meeting, so I just wanted to know if there was anything around Stockholm for next weekend.

Thanks!
Luigi

I think a second one from a scrapyard would be much cheeper then the Tyresö firm could offer you. I thinks its strait forward job to mount it on your Ninety.

Hi Luigi! :D

Check link below:

Just to give you a hint about prices. :smt003
I picked a random company, just to show you.
Buy from wherever you want. :smt004
Local garage with average knowledge fits it for almost nothing, if you not consider doing it yourself. 8)

Mvh, Mad/Max! :smt028

Then I assume 11K is a bit too much :)

I was looking at several online shops but here is three more questions:

1) Do you just buy the tow bar online, and get it delivered at home? I guess that could work, of course.
2) How does it work here in Sweden with car modifications? Do you need papers to show the Transportstyrelsen for the yearly check?
3) How about the electrics? I guess I will need lights to work properly when I'm on the road

Thanks for your replies :) I'm considering doing it myself, I just need some tips on where to order stuff online (but I guess I can just check a few shops/forums) and how it works with authorities, if you need some official papers for the job.

Luigi
