Recommended Baseplate For A 2023 Chevy Equinox Premier
Question:
What is the baseplate number for a 2023 chev Equinox priemer baseplate
asked by: Fred P
Expert Reply:
For A 2023 Chevy Equinox Premier you'll need the Roadmaster Direct-Connect Base Plate Kit # RM-523193-5. If you have lower active air shutters they will need to be trimmed/removed in order for any baseplates to fit. If you haven't picked out the rest of your flat towing components then I have the following recommendations:
Tow Bar: etrailer SD Non-Binding Tow Bar # e74ZR. This tow bar comes with safety cables bracketed to the arms to prevent them from dragging on the ground. It will require pins # RM-910029 to connect to the baseplate.
Tow Bar Wiring Kit: For LED tail lights you'll need the Roadmaster Smart Diode 7-Wire to 6-Wire Wiring Kit for Variable Voltage LED Tail Lights # RM38FR or for incandescent you'll need part # RM26FR.
Braking System: Roadmaster InvisiBrake Supplemental Braking System # RM-8700. This system will permanently install under your driver's seat and will not require any additional setup after the initial installation so that you're always ready to flat tow. Since your brake light switch wire isn't useable you'll need to also use Roadmaster Stop Light Switch Kit # RM-751489 in order to get the brake signal.
