towbar cycle rack advice please

number9

I've recently bought a hyundai i30 hatch. I'm thinking about getting a towbar fitted and a towbar mounted cycle rack for 3/4 bikes. The thing is, I haven't got a clue where to start and what the cost would be. Don't want to fit it myself.

I would prefer a detachable type so it looks neat when not in use (vain).

All advice re make of bars, equipment required (adapters/electrics), fitting costs, suitable tried and tested carriers (tilting ones look good so boot can open without detaching) would be very welcome. Can my hyundai carry 4 bikes this way or is it too much? Does fitting the towbar affect my 5 yr hyundai warranty?

thanks.

Take care to ensure that the licence plate and rear lights are visible at all times. This may entail removing the wheels (easy if you have quick-release wheels) and storing them in the boot.

Removing the wheels??
Is that just while the towbar is being fitted, or does the car permanently run on two wheels after fitting?
