Hello Duncan,

The EU regulations specify that the FULLY LOADED tow ball on a CAR must sit between 350 and 420mm measured from the centre of the ball vertically to the road surface.

The same requirement is not the case for commercial vehicles. I do not know if the CRV has to comply wth this EU rulling.

Hi Duncan - Only able to help re Honda detachable tow bar we had the local dealer fit our tow bar to new shape CR-V - think its made for Honda by Bosal - its 425mm from ground to centre of ball and they charged
