Expert Reply:
We do not have any fit of base plates compatible with your 2007 Mercedes 350 SLK. Your owners manual requires your vehicle to be towed on a flat bed with all 4 wheels off the ground. If you choose to disconnect the drive shaft as you stated, you may be able to use a tow dolly like the Roadmaster Tow Dolly with Electric Brakes - 4,250 lbs # RM-2050-1. These tow dollys have all the brake lights, turn signals, and brakes for transporting your vehicle.
You can choose to use additional lights for better visibility like the Heavy Duty Magnetic Tow Lights - 20' Wiring Harness with 4-Way Flat Trailer Connector # TL21RK.
