What are you wanting to tow?

Re what am I towing-just a small trailer.
Was the "Don't" because of extra weight, or other problems?

adge you need to take the rear bumper off first, then fit the 2 smaller plates behind the bumper brackets, then the rest of it fits on the chassis rails, once the bumper is off it is self explainitory,

With regard to electrics, C70s have trailer wiring harnesses located behind right hand boot liner. I'll try and find a wiring diagram!
