its NZ new and 4 door. we can get one sent to us and we fit it ! getting one supplied and fitted locally is in the $700 region BUT can get one delivered here for under $300
please advise. cheers.

$700 seems a little excessive, most places should be under $500 including a plug.

Myself, since I know nothing about structural fixings on chassis, I wouldn't do it. perhaps it it is simply a bolt up job, but again, I wouldn't do it. I had one fitted to a Corolla, it was $485 all inclusive.Perhaps a trip to Auckland/Hamilton/Tauranga is in order! Book it in, go entertain yourself for an hour or 2, pick it up, done!

A properly made tow hitch should be quite easy to fit, especially if appropriate bolts, fittings and instructions are supplied. I havn't fitted/removed many but those I have, have been a piece of cake.
The CRV will be likely a nice one to do too with the car having a bit of ground clearance and all.

Check out who your nearest dealer is on towbar.co.nz. we do them for $480 fitted so your price is high.

I doubt even Honda would charge you that!
Aker Bilt (sp!) put one on our 4WD Nissan X-trail a year ago for about $500 including wiring. They are in South Auckland somewhere, and are the manufacturers - It had to be properly fitted.

Acker Bilt sorry. - All the towbar places suggested we check with them for our (imported) 4WD, as it was likely they would have to get is specially made anyway.
