Default Towbar situation on WH

Why is there three different looks to the towbar?




Ignore tongue, I like the last setup.

Are they different or is it just the cosmetic part.

Just the cut out on the bumper that's been made to accommodate the receiver. A little wider is better.

Hey MrGC,

Mines like pic2
It's OEM & bolts directly to the rear sub-frame

pic1 looks like an after market kit that bolts under the sub-frame
Quicker fitting because they don't have to cut the rear bumper

Yes that makes sense, if you look closely they sit at different heights.

There are at-least two different versions which bolt directly to the subframe.
