Hi I have an also 3004 tow hitch fixed to my lunar clubman.  Unfortunately on my last trip the alko hitch pad wear indicators have broken off I am aware you can purchase these for £1.50 each however I have no idea how to fit them.  I spoke to my service garage and they said I don’t need to replace them.  Does anyone know if this is correct or know how to fit them?

if it's just the indicators that have broken & the pads themselves are OK I'd tend to agree with the service garage .... maybe replace them as & when the wear pads need replacing.

That is the indicator that shows the hitch is correctly in place, not the wear indicator for the pads.

 

This is what he wants to replace.......

Our caravan had in annual service this morning and the mobile engineer informed us that the hitch pads needed replacing and we were only charged for the pads

That is exactly what I need to replace, any ideas how thecar3 fitted?  It is also the green but both bits have broken off.
