The correct base plate kit for your 2009 Mini Cooper hardtop base model is the Roadmaster Crossbar-Style Base Plate Kit item # 521878-1. This will connect right to the crossbar on your Falcon 2 Tow Bar item # RM-520.

Here are a couple of other parts you will need to flat tow your 2009 Mini Cooper:

Wiring Harness - Roadmaster Tail Light Wiring Kit with Bulbs item # RM-155

Supplemental Braking System - Blue Ox Patriot Radio Frequency item # BLU37TR
