Compatibility of Roadmaster Falcon All-Terrain Tow Bar RM-522 with XL Base Plate 1169-1

Question:

I have a Roadmaster All Terrain tow bar. Will that fit the Roadmaster tow plate for a 2001 Toyota MR2 Spyder?

The Roadmaster XL Base Plate Kit for your 2001 Toyota MR2 Spyder is their part # 1169-1 and these base plates are compatible with all Roadmaster tow bars, including their Falcon All Terrain model # RM-522.

The tow bar and base plates are two of the components required for safe and legal flat towing. Other required items include a set of safety cables, a wiring/lighting kit of some type to operate the Spyder's lights, a high/low hitch adapter to keep to tow bar level and a braking system for the toad.
All of these items are covered I the linked articles on flat towing which I recommend as a good starting point along with a review of your Toyota owner's manual. It is best to check the car's manual to find out if there are any special preparation steps required to ready it for flat towing.
