• Will SMI Delta Force Portable Braking System Work on 2019 Honda Fit
  Yes, the Blue Ox Patriot item # BLU37TR will work perfectly on your 2019 Honda Fit. You will also need the # RM-88400. Whether or not a system like this will actually activate the brake lights when pressing down on the pedal depends on the specific vehicle it's being used on (how the tail lights function when in the correct mode for towing). Based on my research though the brake lights for your 2019 Honda Fit should indeed still illuminate when the Patriot 3 applies the brakes. This...

• Can Peterson Magnetic Tow Lights # PE26UR be Mounted to Side of 2016 Jeep Wrangler
  If you have a strong magnetic surface on the side of your 2016 Jeep Wrangler you could very well mount the Peterson Magnetic Tow Lights # PE26UR there. The magnets are very strong for the lights, but we haven't tested them on the side of a vehicle so there isn't a way I can guarantee that it will hold well. You may want to check out these Demco Wireless LED Light Bar for Towed Vehicles Item # DM36MV. They use a suction cup to mount to the inside of a back window if you have one. Since...

• Will Magnetic Tow Lights Work With a Supplemental Braking System
  In order to use magnetic tow lights like the Peterson Magnetic Tow Lights part # PE26UR on a towed vehicle you must use a portable braking system like the Blue Ox Patriot Portable Braking System part # BLU37TR. If you want to use a permanent braking system like the Roadmaster InvisiBrake Supplemental Braking System part # RM-8700 you'll also need a direct wire-line harness like the Roadmaster Diode 7-Wire to 6-Wire Flexo-Coil Wiring Kit part # RM-15267.

• Light Kit Recommendation for a 4 Bike Platform Rack
  I have a solution that would be your easiest option but we don't carry bike rack lighting kits as in most cases bike racks do not block the taillights of a vehicle since they are usually set out wider than the bikes on the rack. The Magnetic Tow Lights - Red LEDs - 4-Way Flat Connectors - 20' Long Harness # PE26UR would be an option that would be pretty easy to make work.

• Where to Find Out if a Vehicle Can Be Flat Towed
  The best place to find out if your 2014 Honda Fit with an automatic transmission can be flat towed is to consult the owners manual of the vehicle.

From the research I did it looks like the vehicle is not flat-towable. I attached a couple FAQs on flat towing for you to check out also.

  I do have a wiring solution that won't require you to cut or splice into your Jeep's electrical system, however, there isn't a plug and play harness that will allow you to use your Jeep's taillights. Your best option is to go with a set of magnetic lights, like part # PE26UR.

• Parts Needed to Flat Tow a 2014 Hyundai Accent
  I did some checking and it looks like the 2014 Hyundai Accent is only flat towable if it is the manual transmission model. The 2014 Honda Fit can be flat towed with either transmission style but it is not recommended to exceed 65 miles per hour. I would recommend consulting the owners manual of either vehicle or contacting a dealership to be sure. We only carry base plate kits for the Hyundai Accent though. So that might be the deciding factor. If you were to get a manual transmission...

• Where can I attach the Peterson Light Kit
  I went to the warehouse and pulled the Peterson Tow Light Kit, # PE26UR. It can be placed anywhere that there is metal. It attaches securely with a strong magnet. You can place it anywhere so that it can be seen from the back. A good place is the top of the towed vehicle.

  Since you're trying to display your braking and turn signals utilizing your 4-pole connector your best bet is to use a simple magnetic tow light like the Peterson Magnetic Tow Lights # PE26UR.

• Does Battery Need To Be Disconnected When Flat Towing A 2011 Ford Fiesta Automatic
  It is recommended to disconnect the battery on your 2011 Ford Fiesta automatic when it is being flat towed. Your vehicle has a feature that will not allow the battery to be discharged while it is being towed, so you should not have to go through the whole procedure you mentioned to reset the vehicles presets. To keep a maintenance charge on the battery I recommend using a harness such as # BX88206 with the tow bar wiring you will be using so that you can run a wire from the connector at...

You can find this information by doing a Google search on '2013 Honda Fit Owners Manual'. Be sure to read the instructions carefully and completely, as they're pretty specific and if they aren't followed to the letter, you can damage the drivetrain of your...

• Only One Brake Light is Working with the Peterson Magnetic Tow Light Kit
  You will want to verify that both brake light signals are working at the RV side trailer connector. Unplug the Peterson Magnetic Tow Lights # PE26UR, and use a circuit tester such as # PTW2992 to test the pins on the 4-Way while someone sits in the RV and runs through the lighting functions. The most likely cause of this is a bad ground or dirt/corrosion in the trailer connector on the RV. It would take a very small wire brush or small screwdriver to clean on the 4-Way. This recently...

• Can 2014 Kia Soul with a Manual Transmission Be Flat Towed
  I did some checking and your 2014 Kia Soul with a manual transmission can be flat towed. Your Roadmaster tow bar can be used but you will need a new base plate kit as they are all custom fit for specific vehicles. For a base plate kit you'd need the # RM-522114-4. Aside from that most of the flat towing components from your old vehicle can swap to the Soul but it really depends on what you have. If it's a universal lighting system like the part # RM-2120, that will easily fit the Soul....

  You will need to get a completely new tow bar if you're wanting to install a custom base plate kit on your 2002 Saturn SC2.
