Re: How hard is T31 Towbar installation?
It's not hard to fit the T31 towbar, actually it is much easier than fitting one to a T30 exy.
Here are some pics showing how the towbar is fitted and where it is bolted. All you have to do is take the rear bumper off and bolt it directly to the chassis/body of the car.

But you also have to slide it in under the chassis rail where it could be a little tricky. There are 2 bolts on either side underneath as well.

It's working out how to get that rear bar off (and back on again in 1 piece) that has stopped me thus far........

Re: How hard is T31 Towbar installation?
That's easy too Alan if you refer to the ESM. Actually and T31 and I had his T31 rear bumper removed within 10 minutes max. Putting it back on wasn't that hard either.

Re: How hard is T31 Towbar installation?
Thats right Alan, no more than 10 minutes, 2 clips underneath, 2 bolts behind the tailgate and 2 in the rear wheel arch, one each side.
If you get stuck send me a PM and I can come over and help you with it if you like.
edit, spelling

I thought I just did, maybe I was too subtle (a first for me perhaps)
