  • What Are Active Air Shutters And How Do They Prevent The Installation Of A Baseplate
  • If you have air shutters you'll see a bunch of little black plastic flaps that lift up in front of the radiator coils when you remove the front fascia. It's super common on Chevy Equinox's and we typically just trim them or completely remove them in order to get the Roadmaster Direct-Connect Base Plate Kit # RM-523185-5 to fit since it sits in the same space.

  • Demco Classic Baseplate Compatibility With Blue Ox Alpha Tow Bar
  • The Demco Classic Base Plate Kit - Fixed Arms Item # DM9518310 are not a confirmed fit for your Blue Ox Alpha Tow Bar and there currently aren't any adapters. In its place I recommend the Blue Ox Base Plate Kit - Removable Arms Item # BX1722. You won't need an adapter if you use these base plates instead.

  • Adding a 4- and 7-Way Connector to a 2015 Concord DS300 RV with 7-Way Connector
  • It is likely that the 7-Way connector on your 2015 Concord DS300 uses the standard US car connector type of connection. If you look at the back of it there should be a harness that plugs into the back of the connector. There is a locking tab you can pull out to remove that harness from the back of the 7-Way. If that is how your RV 7-Way is set up then you can just replace the 7-Way with # HM40950 that you referenced. If the harness cannot be unhooked from the back of the 7-Way, then what...

  • Replacement Motor and Gear Box for Kwikee 903206000 Steps
  • Thanks for the picture! It sounds like the gear box on your Kwikee 32 Series steps is going out. You will want the Replacement Gear Box and A Linkage for Kwikee Electric RV Steps item # LC379160 to replace it. If you are worried it is the motor then you can replace it with item # LC379147. If you want to replace the motor, gear box, and all the wiring you'll need item # LC379145.

  • Does Thule Passage 2 Bike Carrier TH910XT Fit A 2013 Chevrolet Spark?
  • The Thule Passage 2 Bike Carrier - Trunk Mount # TH910XT you were looking at is confirmed to fit your 2013 Chevrolet Spark, and is a great option to carry up to two bikes weighing up to 35lbs each. I included a video of the # TH910XT being installed on a similar 2014 Chevrolet Spark for you to take a look at.

  • Why Does The Negative Battery Cable Need To Be Removed To Flat Tow A 2021 Chevy Spark Manual
  • The reasoning behind removing the negative cable from your 2021 Chevy Spark's battery isn't a charging/maintaining battery level issue. Chevy has you do this to disable certain functions of your vehicle to allow it to be safely flat towed. As time goes on cars are getting progressively more and more computerized and by not following the manufacturer's required steps, such as removing the negative battery cable, could potentially harm these components. To make disconnecting the battery as...

  • Will the Thule Passage Trunk Mount Bike Rack Fit a 2013 Chevy Spark and Beach Cruiser Bike
  • Thule Passage 2 Bike Carrier - Trunk Mount Item # TH910XT does indeed fit your 2013 Chevy Spark. It has a weight capacity of 35 pounds per bike. You will also need to use Swagman Deluxe Bike Frame Adapter Bar for Women's, Children's, and Alternative Frame Bikes Item # 64005 in order to load the bike on the rack. I have linked videos of the rack and the adapter bar for you.

  • Best Trunk Mount Bike Rack for a 2015 Chevrolet Spark
  • The Thule OutWay # TH45JV is a great trunk mount bike rack that gets great reviews from our customers. We even have a video of it installed on a 2014 Spark that I've linked for you. However, the rack we most often like to recommend for vehicles with a hatchback, and especially if your 2015 Chevrolet Spark has a spoiler, is the Hollywood Racks Over-the-Top # HRF2. It's specifically made to go over the rear hatch and not cause any damage to a spoiler. I've linked a video of it on a Subaru...

  • Recommended Tow Dolly with Enough Ground Clearance for 2018 Chevy Spark
  • The best two tow dolly options we have for a 2018 Chevrolet Spark is the Demco Kar Kaddy X part # DM9713093 and Demco Kar Kaddy SS part # DM9713045. The main difference is the latter has a fold-away tongue for a more compact storage. In order to ensure compatibility due to ground clearance with either one you will need to use the formula below. If all is a go then I recommend the Kar Kaddy SS as the folding tongue is great for cramped spaces at campsites.

  • Complete Roadmaster Flat Towing Set Up For 2022 Chevy Spark LT w/ Manual Transmission
  • Those parts will indeed fit your 2022 Chevy Spark LT with manual transmission, but there is one change I highly recommend, which is a tow bar different than the Falcon 2 # RM-520. The reason for that is the Falcon 2 can bind and is difficult to use without an added tool, the RoadMaster Release Tool # RM-066. It will be much, much simpler for you to disconnect a non-binding tow bar with quick-release latches, the Falcon All-Terrain. The All-Terrain also has guides for the wiring so the...

  • Trailer Hitch Receiver and Bike Rack For a Flat Towed 2018 Chevrolet Spark to Carry 2 E-Bikes
  • The class I Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # C11433 with the 1-1/4" receiver is the only size available for your 2018 Chevrolet Spark. There is not currently a 2" custom fit receiver for your Spark. If you were to use the Adapter # HTAD this will reduce the receiver tongue weight capacity in half. So rather than the Draw-Tite receiver being able to support 200lbs it will only be able to support 100lbs. This will likely not be enough capacity for the Thule rack and the 2 e-bikes you will...

  • Does SMI Stay-IN-Play DUO Supplemental Braking System Work With 2017 Chevy Spark?
  • Your 2017 Chevrolet Spark actually has separate, and not combined, turn signal lighting so there would not be any confusion in regards to the turn signals also being used. The SMI Stay-IN-Play DUO Supplemental Braking System # SM99251 works with dual activation signals, so an inertia sensor must register deceleration and the RV's brake light must come on for it to work. Additionally, Stop Light Switch Kit # RM-751480 is required to use this braking system on your Spark, as it taps into...

  • Least Visible Hitch for a 2022 Chevy Spark
  • The least visible hitch we have for your 2022 Chevy Spark is going to be the Draw-Tite item # 24941. Everything but the 1-1/4" receiver mounts behind the rear bumper cover. This is a class I hitch with a 200 lbs tongue weight capacity so it will work great with your Thule Easyfold Bike Rack item # TH903202. I have linked an installation video below along with a couple of pictures so you can see what this hitch looks like once installed. This hitch does not fit the electric models.

  • Trailer Hitch, Ball Mount and Wiring For Chevy Spark Without Ground Effects Years 2013-2015
  • The Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver Item # C11334 for the 2013 - 2015 Chevrolet Spark without Ground Effects does not come with a ball mount but there is a recommended ball mount for ground and ground clearance. The recommended ball mount is Draw-Tite ball mount part # 3594. I recommend part # 19258 for a 2" ball and part # 19256 for a 1-7/8" ball depending on what your coupler needs. I have attached an installation video of the hitch for your reference. It sounds like you will also need wiring,...

  • Can Tow Dolly be Used for a 2020 Chevy Spark w/ Manual Transmission
  • Yes, according to the online owner's manual for a 2020 Chevy Spark, you can tow the manual (and automatic) transmission with a tow dolly like the Roadmaster Tow Dolly with Electric Brakes # RM-2050-1. This tow dolly doesn't comes with a plug for the lights and brakes so I recommend using the Pollak 7-Way # PK12706 to get everything up and running. To tow your 2020 Spark you'll need to follow these steps: 1 - Put front wheels on dolly. 2 - Shift manual transmission into 1 (first) gear. 3...

  • Trailer Hitch and Wiring for a 2013 Chevy Spark with and without Ground Effects
  • If your 2013 Chevy Spark is a 2LT then it would have the ground effects in question and for that there is not a trailer hitch receiver that will fit. However if your Spark is a 1LS or 1LT then it would not have the ground effects and you would use Curt hitch # C11334. If you want to use the hitch for an accessory such as a bike rack or cargo carrier then you have to make sure the accessory is rated for use with a Class I trailer hitch. Also, with a bike rack, you are limited to 2 bikes...

  • Flat Towing A 2021 Chevy Spark
  • To flat tow your 2021 Chevy Spark you'll need base plates, a tow bar, tow bar wiring, safety cables, and a braking system. If you have an automatic transmission you will have dolly tow instead of flat tow. I recommend the Demco Kar Kaddy X Tow Dolly w/ Disc Brakes - Tilt Bed Frame - 4,800lbs - Wide Tread # DM9713093. I recommend the following flat towing items for you: Base Plates: Roadmaster Direct-Connect Base Plate Kit - Removable Arms Item # RM-523202-5 - these will fit whether...
