Adapter Needed to Flat Tow 2015 Fiat 500 with Ready Brute Tow Bar
Question:
I have been researching towing options for my 2015 Fiat 500 Sport 5 speed manual. Roadmaster 522013-1A base plate and Roadmaster RM-032 adaptor bar. I am using a Ready Brute Elite tow bar. My question is. When the adaptor bar is used does it still fit neatly behind the grill of the Fiat. After watching the video install on the 500L one thing I like was the neatness of the grill area when not being towed. Many thanks

If you plan on keeping the Ready Brute tow bar there is only one adapter option available that works with it. For that you would need the part # BX88297. Only catch is that it only works with Blue Ox tow bars.
Sot that means the base plate you have to go with instead is the part # BX2800.
When you aren't towing the 2015 Fiat 500 Sport the front of the vehicle will have a clean look as the arms of the base plate are removable.
