Cool Fabia 2008 Estate fititng tow bar

Does anyone have any details on how to fit a tow bar on a Fabia Estate 2008 model I have tried but became stuck at trying to remove the rear bumper, and obviously dont want to do any long term damage to the car or bumper. Any help appreciated.

Re: Fabia 2008 Estate fititng tow bar

If the estate is anything like the hatch, you should:

Remove rear lamps, two torx screws on each side hide under the lamps.

Remove or partially remove the plastic wheel house liners. The liners are fastened with T25 screws, and when you have removed these you should see the rest of the screws holding the bumper.

There are some screws or quick fasteners in the bottom as well, but I'm guessing you have found these..

Good luck!

Sorry to hijack this thread, but does anyone know if you need a relay bypass when fitting towbar electrics to the new fabia?
