I'm wanting to get a Tow bar mounted 2 bike carrier. However, I also need one that tilts and allows access into the rear (to let dog in and out when travelling). Does anyone know if the LR carrier as detailed in the accessories brochure tilts? I know that Thule do one (cheaper than the LR option too).

Also, the accessories brochure says that the Tow Bar mounted 2 bike carrier (VPLVR0069) also requires a Heat Shield (VPLWR0124). Excuse my naivety but what is a heat shield, what does it do and how much does it cost? Can't find any details in the brochure.
Thanks!

A guess would be to stop you bike tyres from overheating from the DS exhaust.

I cant find any details on the accessory guides either.

On one of the LR promotional videos it shows the toe bar mounted bike carrier tilts. The video should be on the LR website
