I bought new Towsure towbar + the full Canbus twin sockets, which cost me £350 - on top of that, I had to install it all. Tow bar was an absolute doddle, the wiring more involved and took up much of the rest of the day.

Fix a poor handbrake; DIY ABS diagnostic unit; Loan of the spanner needed to change the CDT belts; free OBD diagnostics +MAF; Correct Bosch MAF cheap; DVB-T install in an ex-hi-line system; DD install with a HK amp; FBH servicing.

I've taken a vow of poverty. To annoy me, send money.
