I'm looking to get a Westfalia towbar fitted to my 2016 X3. Does anyone have any recommendations for a company in the Glasgow area that could do this for me?
Thanks in advance.

I’d try them too. Well known and seem to know what they are about

I had a Wesfalia detachable bar fitted to mine a few months ago but got it done locally. I would however suggest PF Jones but if its a detachable just be aware that they will have to cut out a small piece of the rear under tray. You wont be able to notice it though and the bar is a really nice piece of kit.

Thanks. Am actually booked in there so we'll see how it goes. Anything I should be aware of about the fitting, or should be asking for? Am getting a Westfalia detachable fitted.

Make sure that they are wiring the 12-pin connection fully. BMW leave two connections off (fridge & 12v switched) so worth checking that the full set are connected. Most after market fitters do everything, but it’s still worth asking
