• Parts Needed to Flat Tow a 2001 Saturn S Series SL1 Sedan
  To use the Roadmaster base plate to Blue Ox/Demco tow bar adapter, # RM-033, you will need to install Roadmaster base plates like # 162-2.

With the base plates and tow bar out of the way you will also need safety...

• Base Plates, Tow Bar, Wiring, Safety Cables, Braking System to Flat Tow a 2000 Saturn S Series
  The major difference between Roadmaster Base Plates, # 162-2 and # 162-3 is that the 162-3 only goes up to 1999 models of the Saturn SL 1 and SL 2 series.

We cannot recommend modifying a base plate kit to...
