Towbar fitting to a 1970 144

Hi

As per my wanted post - I'm wanting to fit a towbar. Going to be getting a small to medium trailer tent for the summer. I guess around the 500kg mark maybe a little heavier.

Few questions

How on earth does it fit to the chassis?
Are there ready fitted captive nuts?
Any welding involved?
Assuming I can do it, will I just need a drill and a torque wretch?

Don't like the idea of cutting into the electrics but is it fairly straight forward?

Thanks all
