No problems at all with the towbar and the dedicated 13 pin wiring kit was also very well made and straight forward. Be aware that the wiring kit requires the fog light deletion function to be spliced into the loom (everything else is plug & play) and the relevant fog light wire to cut into is the same colour as the fuel gauge wire (and they are next to each other). Choosing the wrong one means that your fuel gauge drops to empty when the trailer is plugged in. Guess how I know?????

Good quality fittings and instructions, fitted together easily. Hardest part is getting the bumper off. NOTE: dedicated 13pin V90 electric kit did require one wire to be spliced into loom. There were two wired with the same colour way!!! I managed to choose the correct (fat) one as all worked perfectly.
