You will need to check with your local DMV to verify any laws, city or county ordinances that specify the visibility of your license plate behind the bike rack.
We don't have any that are directly intended for this application, but some of the more popular ones are the Thule Replacement Licence Plate Bracket, part # 753-2023 and the Optronics License Plate Mount, part # LP10SB.
If you plan on mounting and using either one of these, becuase they are not designed for this use, you'll have... view full answer...
The # C56179 is for installing trailer wiring on a vehicle so it would not be the correct kit for you. The easiest way to find a brake light only circuit on your vehicle would be to either tap into the circuit that runs to your current third brake light, or use a taillight converter like part # 118158.
You would run the input side to the stop/turn circuits of your vehicle like the box is labeled, and then on the output side the red wire would be a dedicated brake light signal. view full answer...
The older cargo boxes like the Karrite you have are going to need a smaller bar style like square or round. The Rhino Rack roof rack part numbers # RRVA126B-2, # RRRLKVA and # DK402 will be your best option. The only thing you need to do is measure the distance between the mounting hardware to ensure that the crossbar spread of this kit which is 27-1/2 inches will be compatible. Due to the age of your box there isn't that specific fit info available to us. view full answer...
The trailer hitch we offer with the most ground clearance for a 2013 Dodge Dart is the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver part # C11281. The receiver tube will sit just directly below the rear bumper fascia so you only really loose a few inches of ground clearance. This should not create an issue for most driveways. view full answer...
From my research I found that the towing capacity for your 2013 Dodge Dart Rallye has a maximum towing capacity of 1,000 lbs. This would be the weight of any trailer you attach added to the weight of the cargo on the trailer.
The hitch I recommend is the Curt Trailer hitch, part # C11281. This is a Class l hitch and has a 1-1/4 inch receiver opening.
The ball mount I recommend is the Draw-Tite Ball Mount, part # 3592. This fits 1-1/4 inch receivers and uses hitch balls with a 3/4... view full answer...
We do offer various hitch adapters that can turn the 1-1/4 inch receiver on your 2015 Dodge Dart into a 2 inch opening. For example, the Brophy # HTAD will insert into the receiver opening and provide the larger 2 inch opening needed for a lot of hitch-mounted accessories. An important factor to keep in mind is that that the use of any hitch adapter will reduce its tongue weight capacity by 50%. For example, if your the trailer hitch on your Dodge Dart has a 200 pound weight capacity, this... view full answer...
For a trunk mounted bike rack that has been confirmed as a fit for your 2013 Dodge Dart and is specifically designed to fit over spoilers you would want the Hollywood Racks Over the Top part # HRF2-3. I attached a review video for you to check out as well.
If you plan on carrying any womens or alternative framed bikes without horizontal top tubes you may also be interested in purchasing a Swagman Easy-Out Women's and Alternative Frame Bike Adapter # 64005 to provide a horizontal top tube... view full answer...

The most important thing to note when determining how heavy a trailer your Dodge Dart can tow is that you will always be limited by your weakest component. This means that if the Draw-Tite Class I Hitch # 24890 features a 2,000 pound towing weight capacity but your vehicle has a 1,000 pound towing limit, you will need to stay under the vehicle's lower 1,000 pound capacity. I did take a look at the online owner's manual for your 2013 Dodge Dart and verified that it does list a 1,000 pound... view full answer...
That's a great question! I've done some research and using the Roadmaster Tow Dolly with Self-Steering Wheels and Electric Brakes - 4,380 lbs part # RM-2050-1 with your 2015 Dodge Dart is not recommended. It isn't that it will cause any mechanical issues with the Dart if it is front wheel drive only but there is a concern of damaging the underbody of the vehicle.
Here is some information I found on it.
"Due to the low ride height (reduced ground clearance) of this vehicle, vehicle damage... view full answer...
According to the stats I found on your 2015 Dodge Dart, it is only rated to tow up to 1,000 pounds. We do have a utility trailer that weighs only 305 pounds. That is the Detail K2 Mighty Multi Utility Trailer - 6' Long # K2MMT4X6. We also have the heavier/larger Detail K2 Mighty Multi A-Frame Utility Trailer - 7-1/2' Long # K2MMT5X7 (451 pounds). However, given these two trailers, I recommend the # K2MMT4X6 because the tailgate can be used as a ramp and it weighs less.

When we installed Draw-Tite trailer hitch # 24890 on a 2015 Dodge Dart the distance from the ground to the top of the receiver opening was 9-1/2 inches, see video link. That means you will need a ball mount with a rise of 6-1/2 inches to get to a height of 16 inches.
We can get you close with ball mount # 36065 which has a 5 inch rise. For a compatible ball use # 19258. view full answer...
The Curt # C11281 for your 2015 Dodge Dart GT is confirmed to fit the models with dual exhaust.
If you are planning to tow you will need to add a ball mount and a hitch ball (either # 19256 in the 1-7/8 size or # 19258 in the 2-inch size) and a trailer wiring harness, part # C56179. view full answer...
Some great trunk-mounted bike racks that fits your 2013 Dodge Dart are the Thule Passage 2 # TH910XT and 3 # TH911XT, and the Saris Bones EX 3 Bike Rack - Trunk Mount - Adjustable Arms # SA803.
These are all good racks that have adjustable arms and anti-sway features to keep you bikes from making contact with each other during transport. They do not come with locks. If you want to add extra security to both your bikes and your rack, I recommend the etrailer Cable Lock - 10' Long - 5/16"... view full answer...
For your 2015 Dodge Dart with a naked roof the Rhino Rack roof rack part numbers # RRVA126B-2, # RRRLKVA and # DK402 is a confirmed fit and will work well.
I really like the Rhino Rack roof racks as they are considerably cheaper than the high end racks but the quality is right on par with them. view full answer...
The standard bolt pattern for 14 inch trailer wheels is 5 on 4-1/2 inch like the part # AM20364 which we have a lot of options for. There aren't any options for 5 on 4 inch. view full answer...

Ball mount, part # 3592
1-7/8 inch trailer ball, part # 19256
2 inch trailer ball, part # 19258

The Curt Euro Style Ball Mount, part # C45571 will work just fine in a Class I hitch like the Draw-Tite # 24890 that you'd looked at. Since you'll be towing, you'll also want to pick up a trailer wiring harness, part # C56179 and a hitch pin like # PC2.
I'll link you to an installation video for the hitch. view full answer...
