#1: TRS Tow Straps Author: drunknmunky, Location: Blackburn and Catterick PostPosted: Thu Jan 13, 2011 5:10 pm

Anyone put these on a 206 i really like the look of them and would like to fit them on my car but cant see how i would fit them on as im sure the original tow eyes are welded on and these need bolting on?

By the way im thinking of putting these on as i bent my front tow eye in a bump so need to replace it anyway

On the other hand i have also seen some flat metal plate ones that would also look cool but they need bolting on the chassis too anyone shed some light on how to get about fitting these if i get them?

Thanks Very Happy

You'd have to drill and tap somewhere on the Chassis to get it to work. I've got one on my LCR (and 2 spare in my kitchen). I had to sort some custom work out to fit them. The rear of mine is like a 206 so I've not bothered putting one on there.

You could cut the original off, drill a hole in the crash bar and weld a nut on the back to screw the strap to?

I don't care about how they look, I care about how well they tow and save the recovery monkeys from pulling my bumper off Laughing

They look like a cheap chav modification. On track they do a job, on road they make the car look like a wannabee race car.
