The drawbars, or front arms, on the EZ series base plate kit are supremely easy to mount and remove. Just insert them into the brackets and twist to lock them in place. To remove, simply twist the arms back and pull them out. Once the drawbars have been removed, the remaining brackets are virtually invisible. On most automobiles, the brackets are mounted within the grille, where they remain not only unseen, but protected from scrapes and scuffs as well.

Parts came very quickly. The base plates are really well make and of heavy material. If you watch the video it is a breeze to install. Make sure you have some new clips for your bumper as the old ones will break, not all but some. I ordered clips from Amazon. I used a vibrating saw with cutting blade and it did nice job cutting plastic bumper cover.

The product fit was right on and installation was straight forward. I found the video very helpful in that it showed exactly where all the fasteners are located to remove the bumper cover and splash shield.

Great people to deal with. Order rec'd sooner than expected and the Roadmaster equipment was excellent.
by: William 04/23/2024
The instructions were very good, the video was excellent. If I could make a recommendation, it was a little lacking at the end. Since the Smart car is virtually held together with push pins a little more time spent putting the car back together wourl have been helpful. I'm all done and I have 2 push pins left over and don't know where they go.

I received the base plate for my Miata at 4:30 Monday by 7:00 it was installed and ready to go.A great product fit very nicely.Ordering and follow up went great can’t wait to try it out Just need to decide on the tow bar we will use.The Falcon or Sterling .Thank you for a great product and service.
by: Neil05/18/2024
After 1 year of full-time use I am very happy with the base kit. It was relatively easy to install with the aid of a car lift. I would imagine that it would be a little harder without.
by: Jim02/09/2024
Installation is a bit involved but worth every second of it for the peace of mind while driving. Had a slight issue with my ordering incorrect parts but these guys went above and beyond to get it resolved in time to not miss my trip. Even rush manufactured them due to not being in stock!! Great company to do business with.
by: Luis02/28/2024
This system worked perfectly from experience. They help from trailers e trailer agents was crucial for guiding me through the process.
by: Clint12/14/2023
Product is great, packaging was rough, the parts were banging into each other inside the box. Box looked like it either had been opened before or had sat in a warehouse for several years.
by: Dennis 04/09/2024
Service was immediate. Delivered on time. Tracking was exact. My opinion, overall outstanding.

Purchased the towing adapter for my GMC Terrain a few week ago, received it on time & boxed not damaged. Watched the videos’ about three time on how to do it myself and started one evening and finished it the next morning about three hours with Beer Breaks, LoL. All the parts fix perfectly, had no problems with any of the parts, Product is real sturdy and if you don’t know where to look at the bumper you will not see the hide away receiver brackets. Very nice product, do it yourself and save
Up loading two photos if it will let me one is with hide away brackets installed and the other one you can see is my complete tow bar attached to the hide away brackets

The build quality was good....welds were well done....paint was good
Instructions were pretty thorough.
Lots of trimming away of the splash shield for this install!!
Oh well...no choice I guess.
by: Larry M07/21/2022
This reasonably priced base plate kit was professionally installed on a coupe that was pulled around the New England states for two months. The kit and the car made it possible to see many sites along the route that would have been bypassed without the toad. The kit is solid and provides secure tow-ability.
by: Paul D07/14/2016
Roadmaster base plate for 2010 GMC Terrain. Very detailed instructions, great videos. Product was as described, no holes to drill, just replace factory parts with Roadmaster parts. Everything went together very well. I used the instructions supplied along with the video on my laptop. Hardest part was popping the bumper shroud back on due to colder temperature. I have a fair bit of experience with rebuilding classic cars so have lots tools and reasonable mechanical ability.
by: Tim10/24/2023
Prepared my vehicle for the base plate. The base plate has a manufacturing defect in that the crossbar is approximately.375 inches short. The hole pattern matched on one side but the other side would not line up with the vehicle holes. The mounting plate overlapped the mounting holes by 1/3rd. Clearly, the assembly was short. I find my disassembled vehicle sitting for a week waiting for the replacement to arrive. Hopefully, Roadmaster QC did a better job on the new base plate assembly that I am waiting for.
by: Carson 03/06/2024
It is a lot easier to take of the bumper it is all plastic anyway then to take off the air intake
by: John 04/02/2024
Customer service is very helpful and patient as they walked through everything I needed to set up a car to be towed behind my motorhome.
by: Doug04/07/2020
Installed on 2014 GMC Acadia. Very sturdy and heavy duty base plate. I installed it myself. You will need a little automotive knowledge and more tools then the average do it yourself-er. It took about 6 hours, by myself. It looks more intimidating then it turned out to be. You can't see it when not in use which makes it nice for the wife, since it's her car.
Pictures show the tow bar adapter. Sorry, no pictures of adapter removed.
by: Duane 04/28/2024
I have bought 3 different ones over the years. They all fit perfectly and the videos are so helpful too.

See what our Experts say about this Roadmaster Base Plates
- Inexpensive Tow Bar for a 2003 Honda Civic EXThe Curt Tow Bar with Adjustable-Width Arms part # C19745 would not mount directly to the front bumper fascia on your 2003 Honda Civic EX because it is made of plastic. In order to use this tow bar you would need to remove the front bumper fascia and attach this to the bumper support beam or the core support arms. If you do not want to remove the front bumper fascia each time then your only option would be a set of base plates and tow bar. The cost cost effective option we have for this...

view full answer... - Parts Needed to Flat Tow 2004 Honda Civic EX Manual TransmissionFirst thing you'll need to flat tow your 2004 Honda Civic is a base plate kit like the Road EZ Base Plate kit part # 521537-1. Since it's a manual transmission you'd have to just basically put the vehicle in neutral and you'd be set. In addition to the base plates, you will also need a compatible tow bar, safety cables, lighting, and supplemental braking to flat tow your vehicle.

view full answer... - What is Needed to Flat Tow a 2004 Honda Civic EXThere are many components that are needed to safely flat tow vehicle behind your RV. You will need base plates, tow bar set-up, safety chains, a lighting solution and a supplemental braking system. Some applications also may need a high-low adapter to make sure the tow bars are level when towing. Consulting your local Honda Dealer will confirm if you are able to flat tow this model Civic.

For lighting you can use the bulb and socket kit, # RM-154, and not have to worry about cutting into the taillight assemblies.

For base plates, I recommend a Roadmaster kit. If your Civic is a Hybrid or standard model use # 521537-1. If you have an SI this will not fit. I recommend the Roadmaster Sterling, # RM-576. It'll pair nicely with either base plate kit and it includes safety cables and a wiring harness. I recommend...
