For the BMW, you have to replace the bumper mounts with longer versions (longer into the car) that need an extra hole drilled to bolt it in place. The Towsure kit was an exact copy of the BMW original one, so once you'd lifted up the floor mats there were already dimples in the tops of the runners, so you knew exactly where to drill!

The hardest part was the wiring of the lights, but it just took some time with the multi-meter on the rear light cluster to figure it all out.

Total cost was less than £50 as I got the towbar well cheap off ebay (like £11 or something!) then a fiver for a ball, about 8 quid for the pre-wired socket and a couple of quid for a rubber cover for me ball - gotta be safe!
