{"product_id":"towball-cover-and-cap-multipack","title":"Towball Cover and Cap Multipack","description":"\u003cp\u003eA spare part: four covers, because they are lost one at a time.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eTowing is the one thing you can buy for a car where the wrong part is not merely disappointing. Every towbar listing here states the type approval number, the D value, the maximum noseweight and whether the bumper has to be cut, because those four facts decide whether a bar is legal on your vehicle and whether it will pull what you want to pull. Every electrical listing says plainly whether it is a dedicated loom or a universal one with a bypass relay, and what each will and will not do. We would rather lose a sale to a cheaper part than sell you one that does not fit.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSpecification\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFits: tell us the towbar, the trailer or the coupling and we will confirm before you order.

Sockets corrode, seals perish, receivers seize, bearings wear and brake cables rust inside their outers. None of those is a reason to buy a new towbar or a new trailer, and a shop that only sells whole products has no reason to tell you so.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Tow Tide","offers":[{"title":"One","offer_id":54819787112781,"sku":"HHT-SPR-013-X1","price":13.95,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0993\/6230\/8429\/files\/Towball_Cover_and_Cap_Multipack.jpg?v=1789740045","url":"https:\/\/towtide.com\/products\/towball-cover-and-cap-multipack","provider":"Tow Tide","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
