Towing Accessories Your customer might already have their car fitted with a roof box or a bike rack but have they got the accessories to match? Keeping a small supply of accessories in your waiting room with a nicely positioned display can offer your customers added value. If you don’t want to keep them in stock then you can always get them from LKQ Euro Car Parts the same or next day.
