everything thy make is for a honda, why would you want another tow hook mounted somewhere else on the front when our cars already come with a pem one, and there are other companys making a direct replacment one

I still laugh at having the tow hook in all the time.. sorta like saying you expect to need a tow... in many places that would be bait for a lot of jokes :rofl: Kinda like the guy I saw the other day with Honda written backwards on the front window of his accord so you could read it in your rearview.. I guess so the guy beating him would know what he beat :D

Honestly though, do what you want if that is what you are into.

My 10hp Troy Bilt chipper has a tow hook. Because it's a chipper. "Ability to be towed by hooks" was not on my list of desirable car features.

well it obviously should have been becuase you have a tc with a circular plate on the bumper which covers a hole that screams " PUT A TOW HOOK IN ME!"

Exactly. A COVER. No where does it say "Screw this thing into the bumper and drive around with it sticking out." Every time I see one on a perfectly functional tC, I want to grab a length of cable and padlock it to a lamppost.

I've never been a fan of tow hooks...but for some reason because our front has that damn hole in it already I kinda want one...but I dont know who makes it. Its this though

always having a tow hook on is comprable to driving around with a little red gas can duct tape to your roof.

there's a white tC on these forums with that red tow hook.

some of my friends have Benen tow hooks on their cars (hondas and wrx's). i think theyre more of a fashion statement like plaid headliners. some honda guys put starbucks cups in theirs LOL

I am so glad I am not the only one that feels that way! teach them a lesson!

I could understand it if there was no cover and just a hole. You'd want to put something there. But that's why there is a cover. Even if for some crazy reason they came with no cover there so you could easily put the hook on, I'd still hope someone made a cover to fit there.
