Hihaha yellow rotary tow hook – 18.5cm universal tow ring
This bright yellow tow hook is a proper no-nonsense bit of kit for anyone who wants a reliable towing point without any fuss. It’s made from metal for strength, finished in high-visibility yellow so you can spot it at a glance, and sized to suit lots of common applications — particularly handy for BMW owners, but perfectly suitable for most cars, SUVs and light trucks. If getting a vehicle moving quickly matters to you, it’s well worth stashing in the boot.
Key features
- Robust metal construction gives a secure, dependable connection when towing is needed.
- Rotary ring design makes it easier to line up straps or ropes and reduces awkward angles during recovery.
- Yellow finish boosts visibility in poor light or roadside conditions — a proper bonus in winter.
- Compact 18.5cm length is simple to handle and store, yet long enough to keep the hook clear of the bumper.
- Direct screw-on fit with a 3mm thread for quick installation — no special tools and no faffing about.
Fitting and compatibility
The hook is made for screw-in tow points and will fit many BMW models and most other vehicles that use a threaded tow eye. Before you buy, check your vehicle’s tow eye thread and the bumper cover — some cars use proprietary caps or larger thread sizes. If you’re unsure, have a look in the handbook or measure the thread to avoid disappointment. Fitting is straightforward: remove the tow cover, line the thread up and screw the hook in until it’s snug. No complicated brackets, just fit and forget (until you need it).

Practical tips and safety
This tow hook is intended as a recovery/towing point and should be used with suitable, rated straps and equipment. Don’t attempt to tow loads beyond your vehicle manufacturer’s recommendations. If the thread feels loose or the fit isn’t right, stop and check — a loose tow eye is dangerous. Give the hook a quick once-over before each use: clean off grit, check for damage or corrosion, and replace if anything looks dodgy. Used correctly, it’s a simple, effective piece of kit that can save time and grief and prevents bumper damage.
One last thing: the 3mm thread isn’t standard on every car, so double-check your vehicle’s tow eye before purchasing. Otherwise, this is a handy, visible and robust tow ring that does the job without any drama.
