3. Drill holes D 11mm dia, vertically through the chassis and boot floor.
Inside the vehicle, enlarge holes D in the boot floor only to 18mm dia.
Insert spacers F then position clamp-plates E over the corresponding
holes and attach the towbar with four M10x120 bolts, plain and spring
washers and M10 nuts.
4. Attach brackets G and H to the towbar with M10x30 bolts, spring was-
