Question:
Need to find brackets that bolt to frame to hook road master tow bar to for 2013 Honda CR-V. On 2001 Honda one went on each side attached to frame and has a round piece sticking up that tow bar went on. Where can I get this.

We offer two base plates that are designed to fit your 2013 Honda CR-V.
The first is part # RM-521567-4. These base plates have removable drawbars that make the base plates almost invisible. These base plates will work with any Roadmaster tow bars.
The second base plate kit we offer is part # RM-521567-5. This has the same features with removable arms but will work with Roadmaster tow bars that are motor-home-mounted only.
There are five items you need when flat-towing. You will need base plates, a tow bar, safety cables, lighting for the towed vehicle, and most states require a supplemental brake system. I have attached links to some helpful articles about flat-towing you can take a look at.
For safety cables I recommend part # RM-643.
The tow bar wiring I recommend is part # RM-155. This kit bypasses your vehicle's electrical system. Fuse(s) must be pulled during towing. Please check owner's manual for flat-towing requirements. If your owner's manual says to only pull the #19 ACC radio fuse, use part # RM76511. If it states to pull the #19 ACC radio fuse and the #20 ACC key lock fuse, you will need part # RM76512.
For a supplemental brake system I recommend part # BLU37TR. for a 12V power outlet to power the system use part # RM-9332.
Since you want to tow the vehicle as flat as possible you may need a high-low adapter for your hitch. I have attached a link to our product page for the high-low adapters we offer you can check out. I also attached a helpful article that explains how to measure to find the right adapter for you.
