• How To Mount A Breakaway Switch When The Baseplate Doesn't Have A Mounting Point
  Typically if the baseplate doesn't have a nice spot to mount the breakaway we just screw it into the fascia using the small bracket that comes on the switch.

• Tow Bar Lighting Recommendation for Chevy Equinox
  The only other electrical item you would need to flat tow your Equinox would be a lighting solution Eddie. For lighting you can use the diode kit, # RM-15267, and not have to worry about cutting into the taillight housing. This will splice into your taillight wiring to allow your tow vehicle to control the taillight assemblies of the towed vehicle. This comes with a round 6-way connector that you will install on the front of your towed vehicle and enough coiled wire to go from there to the RV.
