Simple, Invisible Design

Setting up these invisible base plates for use with your etrailer tow bar is fast and easy. Just remove the attachment lugs from the ends of your tow bar arms and replace them with these tabs. Then you can just insert the tow bar arms into the base plate receivers to hook up. There's no need to remove the tabs from your tow bar, so you won't run the risk of misplacing tabs. And because the tabs remain on your tow bar at all times instead of protruding from your vehicle , your car maintains a clean look when it's not being towed.


Easy Hookup and Disconnect

Demco Base Plate Tabless Hookup

Using the etrailer invisible base plates to attach and remove your tow bar couldn't be easier. With the base plate tabs attached to your tow bar arms, simply insert the tabs into the receivers on your vehicle and twist to lock them in place. Insert the included pull pins to add an extra layer of security, ensuring the tabs stay put. To remove each arm, simply tug the pull pin to disengage the lock, twist the tow bar arm, and pull the tab out of the bracket.


Receiver Covers

etrailer Tabless Base Plate Ear Pull Cover

Keep dirt and debris out of the base plate receivers with the included covers. These high-density polyethylene covers easily snap into place over each pull point when your tow bar is not attached. Limiting internal corrosion makes it easier to slide the tabs in and out and helps to prevent seizing so that the tabs don't get stuck.


Tow Bar Adapters

If you have a tow bar from a different manufacturer, an adapter may be available. etrailer offers adapters for use with other tow bars so that you don't have to go through the added hassle and expense of replacing your tow bar when outfitting your new towed car with base plates.


Demco Tabless Base Plate Adapters

Type of Tow Bar Adapter
Roadmaster Nighthawk All-Terrain, Sterling All-Terrain, Blackhawk 2 All-Terrain, and Falcon All-Terrain e98983
Roadmaster Falcon 2 or Tracker e99037

  • Will Roadmaster Falcon 2 Tow Bar Work With etrailer Invisible Base Plate Kits
    In order to use the Roadmaster Falcon 2 Tow Bar part # RM-520 with etrailer Invisible Base Plate Kits like part # e98962 you'd need the Adapter Kit part # e99037 but that's all. In regards to base plate installation, these almost always require cutting or trimming of the front bumper fascia but the severity will vary by vehicle. The 2017 Ford Explorer isn't bad though.

    I really like our etrailer Invisible Base Plate Kit # e98962 for your 2018 Ford Explorer because it looks really sleek and hidden when the tabs are removed (see attached photo).
