terribleturner Posted January 31, 2007 Share Posted January 31, 2007 Havn't got my towing eyes anymore as they were blocked by the bumper. So what else can i use?? How about taking the headlight out?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jake Posted January 31, 2007 Share Posted January 31, 2007 Take the headlight out - then what? There's nothing substantial enough to tow the car with behind the headlight, is there? I wonder if it's possible to tow it by the front engine hook. You'd probably need to remove the bonnet though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
terribleturner Posted January 31, 2007 Author Share Posted January 31, 2007 Well headlight came out and managed to secure it. Unfortuantlt the Fing bumper ripped off on the journey Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sheefa Posted January 31, 2007 Share Posted January 31, 2007 Ouch, this sounds a little like that Suburu incident when towing in the off-topic section! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gamer Posted January 31, 2007 Share Posted January 31, 2007 Please tell me you are joking James, you did not actually attempt to tow it by removing the headlight ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
terribleturner Posted January 31, 2007 Author Share Posted January 31, 2007 YES It was the only way to actually get access to anywhere of any substance. Just to put your mind at rest i didn't tie it to the bit at the top of the headlight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gamer Posted January 31, 2007 Share Posted January 31, 2007 In my best Capt George Mainwaring impression: "You stupid boy!" Have you thought about possibly joining a roadside assistance company? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
terribleturner Posted January 31, 2007 Author Share Posted January 31, 2007 Yeah Joe in a normal world i would have phoned them, but i was against the clock and it was the quickest thing to do. Plus the car has caused me nothing but trouble so it was leaving the driveway come hell or high water Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
