I´m looking for a good pic of original ID tag for a trailer hitch made by Westfalia. Oval shaped alu ID tag located on the hitch near electrical socket. Help, anyone?
Thanks!
Jan

Thanks, make me wonder why late bay had a higher rating!
Beware of the replica plae you posted! It contains intentional typos in the markings! Compare it to the original plate!

Wow, you're right. You'd think that anyone who would go to the trouble of fashioning a replica plate would proofread it!

Bigger motor in late bay means more power to pull heavier loads.
