Product description

Would you like to tow a trailer or fit a bicycle carrier to your T25 Syncro while maintaining the original appearance of your Bus? Then this towbar, with its characteristic curved towbar neck, also known as a swan neck, is an excellent solution. The construction is based on the classic design used for the T25 Syncro at the time.

This towbar has a sturdy steel construction and is specially designed for the T25 Syncro with original steel bumpers. The towbar replaces the original bumper brackets, after which the existing bumper is mounted directly onto the designated mounting points of the towbar. This preserves the original appearance of your Bus as much as possible.

Installation
The towbar is mounted using the existing bumper bracket mounting points. This means that no additional holes need to be drilled in the rear body panel. All necessary mounting hardware is included.

Installation is also possible on T25 Syncro models with plastic bumpers, such as certain luxury and special editions. The plastic bumper must be modified to provide sufficient clearance for the towbar.

Electrical connection
The towbar is supplied with a mounting bracket for the trailer socket, but without the socket or electrical wiring kit. These must be ordered separately and can be found under the Options tab.

When you connect a trailer, the trailer's indicators must also be operated by your Bus's indicator relay. This increases the load on the relay and may cause the indicators to flash at an incorrect frequency.

According to European regulations, indicators must flash at least 60 and no more than 120 times per minute. If the indicators flash too slowly when a trailer is connected, it may be necessary to replace the original relay with a version suitable for six indicators.

You can also find this special indicator relay under the Options tab.

Other models
You can find the towbar for non-Syncro versions under the Other models tab.
