E53 towbar cover
E53 towbar cover
Hi there, can the steel spring clips be bought separately for the flap that covers the towbar on the e53? Mine has a broken one and one missing so is very loose. Thanks Bryan
Re: E53 towbar cover
Have a look on Realoem and see if there is a separate part number showing 
I think the relevant slide might be this one (this is the one for my former 2005MY version).

Re: E53 towbar cover
Thanks guys, doesn't seem to show a clip sold separately,my cover is fine, I don't want to put a new one on if it makes the rest look a different shade, just wanted to check if there were clips available for a few quid, I will fabricate new ones to keep it in place.cheers again guys
