Recommended Base Plate for 2005 Honda Accord Transporting with StowMaster 5000
Question:
Need Baseplate for 2005 Honda Accord No Fog Lights, not Hybrid to work with StowMaster 5000 Tow Bar. Tow Bar came with some removable plates that look like they would work with a Blow Ox Baseplate, but am concerned that they more than 24inch apart.

Expert Reply:
I can help you find a base plate that will mount to your 2005 Honda Accord.
The Roadmaster # 1545-1 are custom fit base plates for your Accord and are compatible with the StowMaster 5000 # RM-501.
According to the chart I've attached, there are no adapters available for the StowMaster to work with the base plates from Blue Ox.
Some additional items you may need to round out your setup are wiring, safety cables and a braking system. I like the Roadmaster universal wiring kit # RM-152 in addition to the Blue Ox adapter and umbilical # BX88206 for wiring, the Roadmaster Single Hook Cables # RM-643, and the SMI Stay-IN-Play Duo # SM99251 for the braking system.
