Vehicle Specific electrics

Vehicle Specific Electrics (sometimes known as VSKs – Dedicated Electric kits or E-KITS) are towbar electric kits that are specifically designed for your vehicle.

Dedicated Electrics mostly use microprocessors that amplify CAN or lighting signals taken from a dedicated towing plug or CAN feed in the vehicle.

When fitted correctly, after a vehicle re-code dedicated kits will activate all advanced towing and safety features available within the vehicle and do not invalidate any vehicle warranty as the kit is identical or equivalent to what would be fitted at a factory or a vehicle dealership.
