Blue Ox Base Plate Kit Installation - 2009 Honda Fit Video

I found an online copy of the 2008 Honda Fit owners manual and on page 173 it states that the vehicle can be towed behind a motor home up to 65 miles per hour. It then lists the procedures for automatic and manual transmissions in the pages after…

I looked up the online owner's manual for a 2018 Honda Fit and on page 89 it states that a "continuously variable transmission" (automatic) cannot be flat towed but manual can. If your sport edition is a manual then you can…

I've got a 6-pin switch option for you with the #37212835. This is the same DPDT (Double Pole Double Throw) style as your current switch. The plate it is installed in is a different design, but you should be able to remove the new switch…
