For the most discreet appearance on your 2010 Pontiac G6 I recommend the Roadmaster XL Base Plates # 3165-1 because once you remove their arms the car will look almost exactly as it did before installation. For your tow bar you can use the Roadmaster Falcon 2 # RM-520 which has been rated with an almost perfect satisfaction score from our customers. For safety cables use part # RM-643; their coiled design prevent dragging on the ground.
For a braking system I suggest one of the Blue Ox Patriot wireless units, part # BLU37TR, for its simple installation and portability, but if you prefer you can instead use the Roadmaster Even Brake # RM-9400. More of our customers have given high ratings to the Patriot.
For a wiring/lighting kit you have options shown on the linked page. The easiest install is a simple plug-in magnetic light kit like # C6304, but you also have a hardwire diode kit # RM-154 (which requires fuse bypass # RM76511).
Flat towing often requires a high/low adapter like # RM-076 to keep the tow bar level and the linked article will help you select one. I also included an article on all the items needed for safe and legal flat towing.
