So I'm finally getting round to fitting my towbar.
I installed the main harness (rover genuine) some time back, but never managed to get time to fit the actual towbar and the electrical connections in the dash.

Anyway,
reading the 'how to' and the instructions that came with the link kit I have to remove the fuse board behind the glove box and remove the fuses in the LH side then remove the RED ANTI BACK-OUT FRAME.
I've put my head in as far as I can but can't see any fixings. Also had a look on fleabay for pictures, but again no help.

How do I remove the back out frame? how is it held in place?

Moving on:

Then I have to route a green wire across to the LSM.

I currently have the radio out as I just installed a GSM unit for my FBH so I have good access behind the centre console. However how do I remove the LSM to get at the connector?

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks
Steve
