I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but there isn't any adapters that'll allow your Roadmaster StowMaster Tow Bar # RM-501 to be used with your Blue Ox base plates.
Since you already have a base plate kit installed, I'd recommend just swapping the bars out with a set that is compatible. If you're wanting to stick with the same coupler style tow bars like the StowMaster, the Blue Ox Acclaim Non-Binding Tow Bar # BX4330 is what you'll want.
This tow bar is similar to the StowMaster having... view full answer...
For your 2007 Chevrolet HHR, the base plate you'll need is the Blue Ox Base Plate Kit # BX1692.
Since this is a Blue Ox base plate and you're using a Roadmaster tow bar, you're also going to need the adapter # RM-031 to be able to use the two components together.
If you're needing the complete flat towing setup, you're also going to need wiring # RM-15267, a braking system # HM39494, the Roadmaster FuseMaster Fuse Bypass # RM76511, and more than likely a high-low adapter # C59KR.

Yes, the Aventa tow bar is compatible with the Blue Ox base plates # BX1692 on your Chevy HHR.
In addition to the tow bar and base plates, you will need safety cables, # BX88196, if you do not already have some.
For lighting you can use a simple magnetic kit such as # RM-2120. Or you can use a kit that plugs in line with the vehicle tail light wiring, # HM56100.
It looks like you will need to pull fuses to flat tow your HHR. Check the owners manual to confirm. To make this process... view full answer...
To use a (DISCONTINUED) Roadmaster Braking System RM-9700 in your 2011 Chevrolet HHR you will use their Stop Light Switch Kit # RM-751428. Also recommended is a 12V outlet kit to provide power to the 9700 system; for this you can use # RM-9332. view full answer...
Most states and Canadian provinces now require supplemental braking on the vehicle being towed by law. There is a good chance that where you will be traveling to or traveling through, a braking system will be required.
The easiest system to set up and use is the Roadmaster Even Brake, # RM-9400. You will also need a stop light switch # RM-751428 and a 12 volt outlet kit # RM-9332 to use this braking system on a 2011 Chevy HHR.

Yes, your Blue Ox Aladdin tow bar will work with Blue Ox base plates # BX1692 for your 2009 Chevy HHR. If you do not already have safety cables you can add some using # RM-643.
In addition to the tow bar, cables, and base plates, you will also need a lighting solution and supplemental braking if you don't have those things already.
For lighting you can use a simple magnetic kit such as # RM-2120 or for a more permanent solution I recommend diode kit # RM-154 which plugs into a 4-Way flat... view full answer...
To flat tow your 2008-2010 Chevy HHR you will need a base plate kit, tow bar, safety cables, vehicle tow bar wiring, a supplemental braking system, and most likely a high-low adapter.
For base plates I recommend going with either Roadmaster part # 3141-1 for a Standard model or part # 523159-1 if you have an SS model. The tow bar I recommend for either of these kits is the Roadmaster Sterling All Terrain # RM-576. This is rated for 8,000 lbs and comes with safety cables that are rated... view full answer...
In order to flat tow your 2011 Chevy HHR there are a number of parts you need, starting with compatible base plates. I recommend the Roadmaster XL Base Plate Kit # 3141-1, though please keep in mind there are no base plates compatible with the SS model of your vehicle. For a tow bar I recommend going with the Roadmaster Sterling # RM-576 because of how easy the tow bar is to connect to the base plates due to its long telescoping arms as well as its included EZ Hook safety cables. To keep... view full answer...
No, the 2003 Saturns and the 2011 HHR require different base plates. The Roadmaster base plates for the 2011 Chevy HHR are # 3141-1 (excludes SS models).
Since you already have a Falcon 2 tow bar, # RM-520, you will just need a few more items if you do not have them already.
Safety cables # RM-643
Light kit # RM-2120 (magnetic) or # RM-154 for a diode kit
Fuse bypass # RM76511 since a fuse has to be pulled to flat tow the HHR
You may also need a high/low adapter to keep the tow bar level.... view full answer...
We do have just the replacement hardware for your Draw-Tite trailer hitch receiver, part # 24756.
Use part # RHK and select Draw-Tite from the drop down menu and enter 24756 in the model number. This orders the exact same hardware that was originally included.

You can purchase just the arms for the XL Base Plate Kit # 3141-1 on your 2011 Chevrolet HHR. These are found as part # RM-ARMS on our site. The part number is a link to a form (which has been attached to this page) that will need to be sent in to Roadmaster as the arms are custom-made for each base plate kit.
Once you have the replacement arms then I do recommend using the Roadmaster Falcon 2 # RM-520 which comes with the quick-disconnect bracket. Safety cables like part # RM-643 will... view full answer...
It sounds like you pretty much have all your ducks in a row. The mechanic will need one more thing to complete your setup. He will need some sort of tail light system for the Chevy HHR. You can use a temporary light kit that uses magnets, like part # RM-2120. Or you can use a diode system like part # RM-154 that the mechanic will wire into the HHR so that when in tow, the factory HHR tail lights will be actiavted by the motorhome.

Since you already have a RoadMaster Falcon 5250 tow bar, I would recommend staying with RoadMaster parts, so you do not have to use adapters to make parts compatible.
For your 2006 Chevrolet HHR, the XL Base Plate Kit, # 3141-1, would be correct. This base plate has removable drawbars for the best appearance possible.
Along with the base plate kit you will need a cross bar for the tow bar and a set of car side quick disconnects, if you did not retain them from the previous vehicle. If... view full answer...
The dual hitch extender that I recommend going with is the Malone # MPG544 because it gives you two 2" receivers with one of them sitting about 7-1/2" above the other one. This is compatible with a tow dolly but it has a max weight capacity of 4,000 lbs and max tongue weight of 400 lbs. Since any dual hitch receiver will act as an extender it will also reduce the weight ratings of your trailer hitch by 50% as well.
As long as the reduced weight rating of your trailer hitch is able to handle... view full answer...
