Expert Reply:
For your 2013 Fiat 500 Abarth, the Roadmaster base plate kit you are seeking is the Roadmaster EZ2 Base Plate Kit - Removable Arms, # 522013-1A. This is a confirmed fit for your vehicle. I recommend using Loctite Threadlocker 262 - High Strength - Up to 3/4" Nuts/Bolts - 0.20-Fl-Oz Tube, # LT37420, when installing.
If you need recommendations for the rest of your towing system, I've listed compatible parts for you.
For a tow bar, I recommend the Roadmaster Falcon All Terrain, Non-Binding Tow Bar - Motor Home Mount - 2" Hitch - 6,000 lbs, # RM-522, along with the etrailer Trailer Hitch Receiver Lock - Stainless Steel Flush Design for 2" Trailer Hitch Receiver, # e98882.
For safety chains, I recommend the Roadmaster 64" Single Hook, Straight Safety Cables - 8,000 lbs, # RM-645.
For a braking system I recommend the Blue Ox Patriot Portable Braking System - Proportional # BLU37TR. This will give you a quick and easy install each time you tow your vehicle and connects directly to the brake pedal.
For vehicle wiring, I recommend the Roadmaster 6-Diode Universal Wiring Kit for Towed Vehicles with Separate Lighting, # 154-792-118158.
I've attached a basic flat towing article as well as a help in how to know if you need a hi-low adapter for towing.
