Front tow cover

Hi all

Living in the country wildlife on the roads is a constant danger, this morning I've had a coming together with an oncoming hare. The hare which had initially been coming towards me running in front of a FFRR at last minute changed to my side and ran head first into the front of my D3.

The resulting collision finished off the hare but also finished the plastic front tow eye cover on the D3 which was then run over by a following car. So does anyone know where I can get a new cover and clips?

Cheers

Lee

I paid about £40 for one from Britcar I think. Have lost email so can't be sure, could have been Craddocks or Paddocks but readily available.

RLD does a metal one that provides protection against much more substantial things than hares.

Front tow eye cover

Hi All
I'm looking for a D3 front tow eye cover that (when in place) still leaves the tow eye exposed, so it can be used with the cover in place. I've seen them on a couple of D3's previously but have drawn a blank when phoning round...
Could anyone point me in the right direction ?
Cheers
