Hi all, has anyone got any recommendations for a tow bar for a 2011 GTC. Ideally a removable one. Do I need dedicated wiring or a generic kit? Any suggestions gratefully received.

You can use an aftermarket kit.

As to advise a removable towbar someone else maybe better to advise on that I have a fixed towbar.
