Auto Hak Towbars

From research I have discovered that Auto Hak are a big producer of Towbars based in Poland but until I started researching I had never heard of them, they state that they have all the Euro certifications so should be OK
Not common in England so wondered if they sold into Ireland and if so has anybody got one fitted to their car or van.
Reason for asking is that they seem to be the only manufacturer that make a towbar for my new NX apart from Lexus.
Lexus cost nearly £600 plus almost £500 fitting Auto Hak cost under 200 for similar spec.
Thanks folks
:lol:

You need to check the terms and conditions of your warranty as most manufacturers prohibit non dealer work on a new vechicle especially concerning wiring

Quite a surprise I am more than happy for Lexus to do the electrics as they are not too way over the top and this will keep the warranty side ok. Anybody else does the electrics it could be bye bye warranty
My research indicates the legal position with the towbar is different itself as long as the bar uses the mounting points already installed and has the correct certs and regs unless failure of the towbar is the cause of damage to the car just the same fitting say non lexus mud flaps or wheels or almost anything that does not breach either metal or electronics.
