Hello,
Can anybody help please? I have purchased a Tow Bar for my 2003 L322 loosened all the nuts and bolts ready for the install, just as the manual says. I then came to the last bit were RAVE says Depress 6 clips (3 each side) securing bumper to rear wings and I can't get any further, can't see or feel the clips.
Has any body come across this and can guide me.
Arthur

Obviously they do their best to hide the clips but if you look closely across the top edge of the bumper where it meets the rear wing on each side you should be able to just see the three slots where the clips engage. I assume you already have the 'instructions' below but I've attached them in case?

On your RAVE disc there should be a pdf file named 'aflm021e' which is the accessory fitting manual for the L322 - it's in there in the towbar section.

Failing that there's a free area on Land Rover's GTR website (which replaced the RAVE Manual system) here : Land Rover Owner Information (WAWV0971)
where you can navigate to the 'Accessory Fitting Instuctions' and download the relevant file.

Job done thank's to you, a couple of the clips have broken but luckily enough the ones near the whell arch are ok, will get a couple of the strips with the clips on as soon as I can.
I took the neg lead off the battery before connecting the dedicated wiring loom as per the instructions, now I have got the error message EAS Inactive, do I need it to go on the book or do you think I should disconnect the battery again & then reconnect, surley this should not happen with just disconnecting the battery??
But again thank's & thank's for the links also, just going to try them now.
Kind regards
Arthur

When you first start the engine after disconnecting the battery you must turn the steering wheel (while stationary) to full LH and full RH lock to reset the steering sensors otherwise various warnings are flagged. Do you want to try this first and report back if you still have a problem?
