The volvo version you have listed is different. I believe you must remove towing eye and exhaust bracket shown in fig 11b of the Westfalia instructions. This will give you the holes required for the vertical bolts. ( I guess the tow bar goes on followed by the exhaust bracket and towing eye on their respective sides)
YouTube has a good video of the second tow bar installation.

Sorry for the split posts but I'm trying to hit the magic 30 so I can pm.

Thanks again for the quick response. At least I now feel a bit more confident on a self install.
