Specialised Covers - Tow Pro

[Auspom]

Hi Guys

Thinking of getting a Tow Pro Elite Front Towing Cover for the van but don't know whether to get a padded or non padded.

Do some have an advantage over the other and can anyone vouch on quality of these.

Are there any other makes of Towing Covers just as good as Specialised Covers if so could you let me have their names & web details.

I am in Brisbane Australia but have a 2021 Swift Alpine Sprite2.

Thanks Tony auspom

Tony, you have opened up a can of worms. Covers are like marmite, love them or hate them, you will soon get replies about the pro,s and cons. Me personally, I dont use them, but heh, each to their own. I look forward to the reply's. Good luck 👍

Hi borderbilly. Yes understand what you mean, I should have stated it's not a full cover it's the front Bra/Stone cover I'm after but thanks for the reply.

Usually referred to, and known as, "Towing Covers" in the UK. So it might be worthwhile you changing the wording in the thread title to elicit a few more responses?

I use a Specialised covers towing cover.
Unpadded and it does the job well.
One regret, I didn't get a taller size that covers the upper front window on my Elddis so the upper window is often mucky.

Gumpy If you get the taller/higher Infinity model i don't think it allows access to roll down to reveal the front windows.

My cover is only on when towing.
On arrival it's taken off and put in the locker.

Living in Australia with a good chance of stones being thrown up, go for the padded front towing cover. We had one on our previous caravan for almost 7 years with no issues. It does add a bit of weight to the tongue weight on the towball/towbar especially when it gets wet, so keep that in mind.

I have a non padded, its lighter than the padded, protects against minor stones and fits fantastically easy on my Swift Vogue 480 Caravan. Highly recommend.

I have the padded one and wish I’d gone for non-padded. It’s just too thick, so when packed it’s quite big. I just find it a bit too much of a faff.
