Simple, Tabless Design

Setting up these tabless base plates for use with your Demco 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 Demco Tabless 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

Demco Base Plate Tabless Pull Ear 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 Demco Kwik-Tow tow bar or a tow bar from a different manufacturer, an adapter may be available. Demco makes 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.

Fit perfectly, 2014 Honda Crv. what else to say?



by:
2013 Honda CR-V

Thank you for your help in choosing the correct items needed. I got everything needed for a successful installation. The people that installed my baseplate were very happy with your instructions.They had never used a Demco product and were happy to have this great first experience !! Me too...Thank you!



by:

It is well built, fit as expected. Easy to install. Warning to future buyers to install on crv, the hole you drill in bumper is difficult because it is high strenght steel regular drill bit do not work well. I managed to drill it with a step bit. The baseplate needs a small decal to say "this side upward"



by:

Just received my order (two days earlier than I expected)... After inspecting the various boxes; my order seems to be complete...
I will absolutely be utilizing etrailer in the future and heartedly reccomend that others looking for quality trailering needs to look to etrailer for all your needs...

Great product , easy installation . It took longer then expected for delivery but the box arrived in good shape.

Although parts were missing from the original package, action was taken to quickly replace the missing items.

This base plate is of exceptional value and construction. It was fairly easy to install on my 2008 Jeep Wrangler by myself but would have been quicker if I had an extra set of hands. Overall I am extremely happy with how the base plate looks and the customer service was above and beyond expectations. I would recommend the base plate and you don't have to look anywhere else than etrailers for what you need.



by:

Relatively easy to install, works great, less obtrusive than other brands. Instructions are clear, quality is good. Shown with knuckles removed. As you can see, I had to improvise to mount the coiled cord socket and breakaway switch.



by:

Love it,my bumper wasn't rated for towing so I had to go this route. Pleased it fit fine with the aftermarket bumper.



by:

Have had Demco baseplates on two prior vehicles - very satisfied!

One caveat, though, and it applies to the Chevy Equinox: The mounting points are two thin layers of sheet metal tacked together to form the "frame rail", which make for a pretty weak, scary installation. I added an extra piece of metal plate to the backside of the rail. And be sure to install the safety cables that come with the baseplate, just in case!



by:

Exact replacement for our broken one. Your installer recommendation of Montana trailer services is spot on.
John Bell is the owner and sole person. He is terrific. Did excellent quick job, he is knowledgeable and noted prior installer left off safety cables. Recommend him to all. Thank you



by:

I recently completed a DIY installation of the Demco Tabless Base Plate on my 2021 Jeep Wrangler. Installation is fairly straightforward following the etrailer.com videos. A couple gotchas on the videos.

First, one of the videos suggests removing a sheet metal plate to provide easier access. While it does make for easier access during removal of the bumper, you should reinstall it BEFORE installing the base plate. If you install the baseplate first, there is insufficient clearance for the bolts that hold the sheet metal plate.

Second, the videos show reinstalling the plastic air dam after reinstalling the bumper. At least on my 2021 Wrangler there is NO way you could do that without seriously bending, and possibly breaking the plastic dam. Reattach the dam to the bumper BEFORE reattaching the bumper. Clearances for rebolting the bumper are sufficient. I did it without a lift (thank goodness for the Wrangler’s high ground clearance).

Bottom line is it’s a bit of a project but looks great.



by:

I've used this setup for a year towing a 2023 Jeep Wrangler . I 100% recommend it for anyone else. Under normal conditions it is very easy. Under stressful conditions (bad weather, uneven terrain, need to connect/disconnect quickly) it is a life saver.
I am 63 and I can connect/disconnect this in 5 minutes.



by:

I purchased this as part of a package which included; Hitch and wiring for my 2022 Equinox, Base plate, Tow Bar, brake System and connecting air hose, break away cables, LED tow lights with wiring harness, and a trickle charger to keep the Equinox battery from going dead while I was towing it behind my class A RV.
I had etrailer do the install of all the components on my car and RV. All the workmanship was excellent and done in the amount of time they said it would take. Also because they did not have a video of this equipment being put on this year and model vehicle, I gave them permission to make a video(which added a extra day and a half to the install)and the installation was free. Everything has worked perfectly and I couldn't be happier. Etrailer is my go to for anything towing and also RV parts.



by:

Great customer service. I love the fact that there is actually someone on the other line who is willing to talk you through the features and options of their products.
The products ordered for this particular job worked exactly as they said they would.



by:

Installation went well! The pictures in instructions are a bit hard to decipher! Using it in a few days. It is a replacement my last CR V 2003 was totalled in an accident had a Blue Ox before seems comparable!



by:

Everything fit great and everything is working great.

  • Recommended Flat Tow System for 2014 Honda CR-V
    For your 2014 Honda CR-V, The Demco Commander Tow Bar # DM9511012 is a great fit. I recommend using the Demco Tabless Base Plate Kit - Removable Arms # DM9519328 on your vehicle which will connect well with that tow bar. If you don't have the safety cables then you will also need RoadMaster 68" Single Hook, Coiled Safety Cables - 6,000 lbs # RM-643. You will also need the Hopkins Custom Tail Light Wiring Kit for Towed Vehicles # HM56304 for your vehicle wiring. Fuse(s) must be pulled...

  • Parts Needed to Flat Tow a 2014 Honda CR-V
    To flat tow your 2014 Honda CR-V I like the Demco Commander II tow bar, part # DM9511012. It includes a 1-1/2 inch rise or drop which can help you not need a high-low adapter and it also comes with safety cables. The base plate kit for the CR-V that pairs up with the Commander II is part # DM9519328. To power the Honda's lights you can use the Roadmaster Tail Light Wiring Kit # RM-155. This bypasses the CR-V's wiring system so there is no splicing necessary. It works independently...

  • Can Base Plate Kit From 2009 Honda Fit be Moved to 2014 Honda CR-V
    Base plate kits are very specific fits. You would have to go with one that was designed for your CR-V like the Demco # DM9519328. This would be the kit for you to use though. In addition to the base plates, you will also need a compatible tow bar, safety cables, lighting, and supplemental braking to flat tow your vehicle. The best compatible tow bar for you is the Commander # DM9511012. It has a 6,000 pound maximum capacity which is plenty for the CR-V. It also includes safety cables...

  • Tow Bar, Base Plates and Flat Towing Equipment Recommended for 2014 Honda CR-V
    According to an online copy of the owner's manual, your 2014 CR-V is capable being flat towed. However, Honda has some VERY specific procedures that need to be followed, so I would urge you to consult your owner's manual. I checked with several industry sources, and the general consensus is that if the wheels of the vehicle are turning, miles would be added to the odometer. The Commander II Tow Bar you referred to, part # DM9511012, will work just fine for you, it also includes the safety...

For example, if you got the Direct-Connect you could just use the Roadmaster Falcon All-Terrain Tow Bar # RM-522 as-is. But if you got the Crossbar-Style and used the Falcon you would also have to add the Quick Disconnect Crossbar Assembly...

  • Can 2016 Honda CR-V Be Towed Behind a Motorhome
    According to the 2016 Honda CR-V owner's manual, the vehicle isn't capable of being flat towed, so our vendors don't offer base plates for it. In order to tow the vehicle behind a motorhome, you can use a tow dolly if the vehicle is front wheel drive (FWD). For a tow dolly, I'd recommend the Foldable Kar Kaddy SS from Demco, part # DM9713045. The Kar Kaddy SS has a weight and tread width capacity that are compatible with your CR-V, so the vehicle will work perfectly with it. The dolly...

If you need help picking out any other components that you can't transfer over then let me know and I'd be happy to help. I do know that you'll have to pull the ACC RADIO 19 fuse in the Honda so I do recommend picking up the Roadmaster FuseMaster Fuse Bypass # RM76511 to make this process as easy as flipping a switch.

This means that you can definitely flat tow a 2WD version. For flat towing equipment I recommend the following: Demco Tabless Base Plate Kit # DM9519328 Demco Commander II Tow Bar # DM9511012 Demco Tow Bar Combo Kit with Diode System # DM9523057 and Charge Line Kit # RM-156-25 Brake Buddy Classic 3...
