Im in the process of buying a small tinnie and I need a towbar which are now out of production. I need to know if anyone here can make a towbar for me. The car is a Kia Mentor 97 model hatchback.

I think you will find that most small towbar fitting companies can and will manufacture towbar assemblies to suit any vehicle. old or new. Just look for the ones with out the big ads in the yellow pages.

A lot of the big companies just want to fit their own production or their suppliers production assemblies and cant be bothered with the hassle of a so called custom assembly.

Aranda towbars can make one but 8 weeks and $225 ($350 fitted) later you'll have a new one.

Hayman and Reece make a bar for your model car.
Just go to their site and put in your car details and it shows the price and towbar model number, etc.
Any towbar place that fits hayman and reece towbars will be able to order and fit it for you.

Failing that, have you tried the wreckers? Never know what may pop up.

Kia doesn't have a std accessory tow bar?? Toyota have them on offer for most of their models and are not over the top with pricing really.

Failing that there is a mobile towbar fitter getting around brisie northside i see occasionally while driving to work. He just has "mobile towbar fitting" written on his van with a number. If i see him again this week i will scoe his number for you.
