  • Using T-1 Wiring Harness, Part # 118407 for Lighting Vehicle Towed By RV
  • The T-1 Vehicle Wiring Harness, part # 118407 is designed for towing a trailer behind a 2007 Chevy HHR. It will not work for towing behind an RV, because the harness is designed for output only. To light your HHR while it is towed behind your RV, you have three alternatives. You can use a magnetic mount lighting system, like part # RM-2120. This system is very easy to install and use. It also remains completely independent of the towed vehicles wiring system. For occasional towing, or...

  • Replacement for Control Module 909513 on Kwikee Steps in 1994 Fleetwood Bounder
  • I reached out to the manufacturer who said that for steps that are made prior to 1999 they have to recommend replacing your steps entirely with a new unit. They said the Lippert Components Kwikee Control Unit # LC363989 may work but it is designed for control modules manufactured from 1999 through 2005 and would not be able to guarantee it will work as a replacement for your 909513 due to its age. I have added a link to our entire selection of electric steps for you should you decide...

  • Replacement Draw Bars for Road Master Base Plates for 2003 Saturn L-Series
  • The Road Master Tow Bar Base Plate Kit, part # 523118-1, fits the 2003 Saturn Ion but is not the correct kit for your L-Series. Your vehicle uses base plate kit # 523114-1. Road Master does offer replacement EZ Lock arms separate from the entire base plate kit. These parts are considered special-order items and are not returnable. They require approximately 2 - 3 weeks lead time for production. The part numbers are C000528 for the driver side and C000529 for the passenger side.

  • Parts Needed To Flat Tow 2004 Saturn L300 Behind RV With Blue Ox Rangefinder II Tow Bar
  • I spoke with my contact at Blue Ox and he said the Rangefinder II BX4322 tow bar will not work with Blue Ox removable arm base plates like the # BX3323 for your 2004 Saturn L300 Series. The slot in the removable arm is not deep enough to connect to the Rangefinder II tow bar. You can use the Roadmaster EZ Base Plate Kit, part # 523114-1, on your Saturn along with the Blue Ox Rangefinder II to Roadmaster Bracket Adapter, part # RM-037, you have referenced.

  • Recommendation For 2002 Saturn VUE And Saturn L Series Base Plates
  • For base plates, I recommend the Roadmaster XL Base Plate Kit, Item # 3111-1, for a 2002 Saturn VUE and the Roadmaster EZ Base Plate Kit, Item # 523102-1, for a 2002 Saturn L. For flat-towing either vehicle, you will also need a tow bar, safety cables, wiring, a braking system, and maybe a high-low hitch adapter. For a tow bar that works with both base plate kits and vehicles, I recommend the Roadmaster Falcon All Terrain, Non-binding Tow Bar, Item # RM-522. For safety cables, I recommend...

  • Will the Roadmaster Falcon 5250 Tow Bar Fit Roadmaster Base Plates on a 2000 Saturn LS1
  • My guess is that your Falcon 5250 tow bar is missing the quick disconnect crossbar assembly, # 910021-00. This comes up frequently. This assembly has plates that bolt to the draw bar arms on the base plates. The crossbar pins to these brackets and the Falcon 5250 pins to the crossbar. I have included a link to a video review for you.
