Hi there, Cadillac owners. Today, on your 2016 Cadillac SRX, we're gonna be taking a look at and showing you how to install Roadmaster's base plate. And this is what our base plate looks like when it's installed. The base plate itself is gonna be hidden completely behind the bumper, and you're really only gonna be able to see the safety chain attachments poking out here through the front. And then if we look through the opening that we did have to trim out just a little bit for, for our attachment point here. But it's tucked so far back that unless you're really looking for it, you're not even gonna notice that it's there. more

Blue Ox Base Plate Kit Installation - 2016 Cadillac SRX

Today on our 2016 Cadillac SRX, we'll be looking at and installing the "Blue Ox Base Plate Kit with Removable Arms," part number BX1690. Here's what our base plate looks like once it's installed. As you can see, it's tucked up here nicely inside the grill opening here. Hardly anything sticks out at all, gives us a nice real clean installation here. When we want to actually hook up, we have these dust covers here that go inside the base plate when it's not being in use with the tow bars. You pull those out, we take our removable arms, we stick them in horizontally for this tab, push it in and rotate it until the pin locks in that spot there and it holds it in place. It's the same on the other side, just like that. more

Blue Ox Base Plate Kit Installation - 2013 Cadillac SRX

Speaker: Today on our 2013 Cadillac SRX we will be installing the Blue Ox Base Plate Kit, part number BX1690. With our base plate installed there's not very much at all sticking out from the front of the vehicle. It's a very clean look, so you don't have to worry about running your knees into anything while you're walking around the front of it. It comes with these plastic dust caps here to keep any dirt and debris out of where the removable arms go into. That way, when you actually do need to put them in to tow your vehicle, they go in nice and smoothly; you're not fighting the arms at all. They just pop right in there and they pull out real easily, but not easily enough that they'll fall out while you're driving down the road. Here's our removable arm. more

Blue Ox Base Plate Kit Installation - 2011 Cadillac SRX

All right, today on this 2011 Cadillac SRX, we're going to install part no.BX1690 from Blue Ox. Our first step is to get underneath the hood. Were going to need you to remove two push pins on each side of the top edge of the fascia, and then the pushpins from the center fascia in the front as well. We'll work our way around, removing the push pins. Next thing you remove the rubber piece that goes across the top edge of the fascia. Now theres hooks that go right into the rubber, so basically get a good grip on it, and pull it to the left or right side, depending on which side of the car youre on. Next thing we need to remove the top half of the fascia. more
