I just got delivery of a brand new Laredo, to find out that there are no front recovery hooks. Has anyone had front hooks fitted recently, this year, and can you confirm the price?

If I remember right it cost about $359 or there abouts for the parts, not sure on how much to fit it but it is easy to DIY and doesn't take that long.

Cost me $350 off ebay, and then another $60 to have the dealer fit it... A jip but necessary if you want piece of mind. I've got one front and one rear now, so enough to recover those other poor souls not driving jeeps

During a driver training day last October we had 3 WK Grands, (2 overlands and a Laredo), on the day. Getting the front air dam off isn't too bad just takes a bit of practice the guys were saying.
The big thing is if you have an Overland and you take the front air dam off, take the ACC eye off as well. One chap didn't after he took the air dam off and the repair bill is something I wouldn't want to think about...
