Blue Ox Base Plate Kit that Fits 2021 Mini Cooper S

Question:

I want to make sure this will fit my 2021 mini cooper s as it also is a designated part for 2015 - 2021. Also, what is the recommended wiring kit for the 2022 model? I currently have a Blue Ox hitch, pin connector, etc. due to I have recently been flat towing a 2010 mini, before upgrading to the 2022. Thanks for your help,

The Blue Ox base plate kit part # BX1312 does fit your 2021 Mini Cooper S model as we have confirmed this with Blue Ox.

For lighting you can use the diode kit, # RM-15267, and not have to worry about cutting into the taillight housing. This will splice into your taillight wiring to allow your tow vehicle to control the taillight assemblies of the towed vehicle. This comes with a round 6-way connector that you will install on the front of your towed vehicle and enough coiled wire to go from there to the RV.
