I've been looking everywhere, and can't seem to find an on-line shop that sells these towhooks for the Mini. Can anybody help me?

 

Come on you guys, some replies please... I'm new on this forum so I haven't got a clue yet on how to post pictures, but I assume you all know what I mean. I've got a standard towhook, but I think it looks a bit cheap... And the Euro-style towhook looks much nicer, now I only have to find a shop

 

Check out this thread

Or these search results

And BTW: How to post Pics

Welcome to NAM! Hope this helps.

 

The tow hook should be included in the tool kit in the left rear panel of your boot.

 

That wasn't his question. He indicated he already has a standard tow hook but wants something different.

 

I have this one:

I have been very happy with it. You can find them on eBay, or directly from their site: AutoTecknic

 

Search eBay for "BMW Racing Tow Hook"

 

Thanks guys, I found what I was looking for

But I also found out that some owners had problems with the AutoTechnik towhook because it's a bit long So now I'm considering to purchase the towhook from MINI Clubsport (a german site / shop)

http://www.autohausschaefer.de/mini-clubsport/ -> look for the "abschlepphaken". Assuming that most Americans don't speak German

What do you think, some comments?

 

The shaft of AutoTechnik is longer than stock, but I would not describe that as a problem. Additionally, when I added the M7 grills they ate up some of that length and look very good together (IMHO).
