Default Blobeye towbar for sale

For sale -

Blobeye Sti two bar (I'm not sure if it fits other newage imprezas?)

This came fitted in my Sti I've not used it and don't plan on using it as I don't have towing on my license so taken this off at the weekend and thought I'd post it up here incase anyone wants it.

Not sure what it's worth but it doesn't have the detachable hook with it I've checked the boot and couldn't see it although I noticed you can get them on eBay for it.

Looking for £100 posted Ono. Can take photos if required.

I bought one from a Hawkeye and fitted it to my Bug eye so yours will fit all three. and should fit the wagon as well.


You have to take loads of bits of to fit the bar. Did you get these bits to fit back ?

I haven't taken it off yet just going to do it as far as I was aware it's just a bumper off and bolt off job although this has the electric plug bit on the tow bar so I'll see how that's connected when the bumper is off mate

You can see the power plug but thats all mate it doesn't sit out from the bumper just underneath it but when the hook is on it, it comes out if that makes sense?

Hi, shame. It's not the sort I was thinking of. There's a towbar that is a quick release design and is completely hidden. Sorry bud, this one isn't for me. :-(

I agree ^^ it does indeed look like a witter bar.

To give you an idea of the bits you take of to fit the bar.



You don't need to take the bumper of to fit or drop the bar. You can find the instructions here.

They sell it two ways with either a quick detachable swan neck or as a fixed flanged neck that unbolts. Yours looks like the Su24a. There should be sticker with the model number and spec above the electrics.

If you don't have the missing bits to convert to standard or to make the bar complete for sale than I would leave it alone. The Thule / Brink bar is more invisible but the witter locating mech is simpler and safer. you would be surprised at the amount you can still tow on a new style licence.
