Will this fit my VTR ? im unsure ?

[Saaamon]

Dont think they fit mate (going from another thread that was up not so long ago). TRS do decent tow eyes, http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/TRS-tow-eye-lo...item2a05017d43

Have your original tow eye powder coated. That's what I did on my old black/orange one

ring them up and ask them m8 they will be able to tell ya pal

My friend is on making a batch of these to suite the saxo.

I gave hime my towing eye and a whole bunch of dimentions, as i think the OE one is too long to run around with on a permanent basis.

He makes them all for the clio boys too so he knows what he's doing!









Left: standard saxo Right: his version for the meagne



Should be getting a prototype in a week or so to try on the saxo to check it fits ok, then, mass production!

If anyone is interested give me a shout

They look a damn sight neater than the straps

[paulydixon]

Done:

[shaunsvtr]

is that car in your room lol

[paulydixon]

Yup!

[Paulp]

Does he have any more forsale?

[GoochyBoy]

No idea about the eye mate but...how do you have a car in your room ??

[Maxwell]

paul i love your garage/room lol

how much is your mate pricing his saxo ones at?

pm me a price!

[paulydixon]

They're priced at £30.

This one was a prototype so we could get the dimensions/threads etc sorted out. I'm happy with how it looks, when you consider how far the OE one pokes out, this is shorter and neater.

Standard on the wifes car





So we took that one, measure how far it stuck out, and reduced it accordingly







And that's the finished size ^

Long enough to fully clear the bumper, yet short enough to not look shit

They're tested to 3 tonnes, which is where the ring begins to deform.







So more than capable of supporting a saxo! The OMP ones are thinner, so must be more likely to bend?

If people are interested then get some names together and i'll sort them out

[Paulp]

Put my name down (get me a price first like lol)

1. Paul

[paulydixon]

It's deffo £30 posted.

That's working on a £3 first class recorded delivery and obviously you pay the other £27 for the tow hook itself.

I've seen a few people on here asking about them so i'll start a proper thread in the for sale section and bump any of the threads where people are interested?
