Peugeot 207 Towbars

Peugeot 207 Towing Specifics

The Peugeot 207 was first introduced in 2006 by the French manufacturer as a supermini car, offering decent towing capabilities. The range currently includes a CC, Estate and Hatchback model. We will cover the towing specifics of this model below.

Peugeot 207 Towbar Electrics Kits

It is recommended that all tow bars fitted to a Peugeot 207 vehicle are done so with a dedicated electrics kit, rather than a universal electrics kit. A dedicated electrics kit not only ensures all modern features such as; trailer stability and parking sensors are functional, but also helps to keep your vehicle's warranty unaffected.

We offer both universal and dedicated electrics kits for the Peugeot 207 vehicle towbars, but be aware that universal electrics kits can invalidate any manufacturer warranty your vehicle has and may also require a bypass relay.

Check your Peugeot warranty for more information.

Bypass Relays

All tow bars for the Peugeot 207 models will require a bypass relay, if universal electrics are fitted.

A bypass relay works by powering what it is you are towing through transferring power straight from the battery instead of taking too much current away from your vehicle.

Whereas a dedicated system works in harmony with your vehicle's ECU and all of its functions.

Coding

This is the coding of the ECU to accept the dedicated system, this updates your vehicles software to run smoothly with the new towbar.

All Peugeot 207 models will require coding.

Coding is used to update your vehicles software in order for it to run coherently with the new towbar through the dedicated electrics.

Bumper Cuts

Depending on the towbar, Peugeot 207 models will require a bumper cut. A bumper cut is when a fraction of the vehicle's rear bumper is cut in order to fit the towbar.

All Peugeot 207 CC and Hatchback models have towbars that require non visible, visible and no bumper cuts.

All Peugeot 207 Estate models have towbars that require no bumper cuts.
