Base Plate Kit that Fits 2023 Chevy Equinox with Active Shutters

Question:

I have a 2023 Chevy Equinox with lower shutters. Do you have a blue ox base plate for it? I currently have a blue ox tow bar. If you don’t have a blue ox base plate for it, do you have a base plate that will fit?

I have a solution for you but the Blue Ox base plate kit that fits the 2023 Chevy Equinox does not work with the lower shutters you have. Instead you'd need the Roadmaster base plate kit # RM-523193-5 which is compatible. Since you have a Blue Ox tow bar you would also need the adapter # BX88185 and you'd be set.

The Roadmaster base plate does require some trimming of the shutters which is outlined in the attached install instructions.
