Roadmaster's crossbar-style brackets are virtually invisible, easy to mount and simple to remove. Brackets install on your vehicle's frame to provide attachment points for your tow bar.
Features:
The drawbars, or front arms, on the crossbar-style series base plate kit are supremely easy to mount and remove. Just insert them into the brackets and twist to lock them in place. To remove, simply twist the arms back and pull them out. Once the drawbars have been removed, the remaining brackets are virtually invisible. On most automobiles, the brackets are mounted within the grille, where they remain not only unseen, but protected from scrapes and scuffs, as well.

Roadmaster's crossbar-style brackets are virtually invisible, easy to mount and simple to remove. Brackets install on your vehicle's frame to provide attachment points for your tow bar.Fit perfectly. Straight forward instructions and etrailer videos were a great help. The provided 4 bolts for the upper frame did not fit on the Jeep so just used bolts that had been removed. Product arrived in a timely manner. Delivery service rep was excellent.
I am very satisfied with your product.Installation was easy and instructions were
easy to follow.I would recommend this to anyone considering a purchase.
We wanted a very high strength towing system for our Jeep. After completing our homework we did purchase this base-plate for our automobile. My son and I put them on in about two hours time and if you follow the supplied directions was fairly easy to do if you are pretty good with your hands and tools. They are easy to connect and disconnect when in use. I would recommend this product and seller.
This was fantastic. Everything I needed to wire factory lights on my Jeep to the trailer plug on my RV. Quality products at a good price and prompt delivery. NICE!
Ordered the EZ4 Base Plate Kit for our 2015 Cherokee Trail Hawk on July 17th, it shipped on the 17th and we received it on Jul 21st. Worked with Jean P @ etrailer, who was great to work with, for verifying the correct kit and getting it sent. Haven't got it installed yet, but parts look well made. Will recommend etrailer to our friends.
First I have to say that I have never worked with a better company than yours. I ordered the products early on a Sunday morning and received an email stating that the order was shipped that very night. You folks give very good customer service. You answered questions that I had before I made my order and your answers were right on. This kit was the one that I most dreaded to work on, mainly because of all the dismantling I had to do to the car. After watching your videos a couple of times and following the instructions exactly, this was the easiest project that I have done yet to my tow vehicle. I took be about 4 hours to install this and it was a very easy task. I want to thank you for the time and effort your company has put into making the installations of your products very easy. I will definitely be doing business with you again and will advise friends and relatives to do so as well.
Perfect fit on my 2016 Cherokee Trailhawk. Easy installation after getting over having to disassemble much of the front of the new vehicle.
Easy installation. Detailed instructions easy to follow
Fit well. Videos were very helpful. Medium skill level required to install. Some modification of body parts required.

Fit perfect on my 2016 Cherokee. Vidio was a big help,
Installed and works great
Products as expected, great.
This was a straightforward install. The instructions were easy to understand and follow. All the necessary parts and hardware were included. It is pretty well hidden once installed. I highly recommend this base plate and etrailer.
The install went well. Product is very sturdy and has held up well with no issues. I tow my Wrangler regularly behind my motorhome. I would recommend this product to friends.
great fit. a slight cut needed to be made in the bumper bracket to facilitate the round tube to fit through the bracket. but, other than that, it was an easy install took about 2 hours if you include the coffee brakes. this part is highly recommended. Fast shipping. the beast human service. thank you.
Had Base Plate installed today, shop gave me 2.5 hr labor time. I returned just under 2hrs and they were backing my car out the shop. They parked it facing me. I told the Mechanic "That was quick" He said that's because it wouldn't fit. I was disappointed and asked what do I owe you for your labor> He laughed out loud and said it on there, but hard to see. I was so surprised and pleased you have to just about get down on your knees and bend down to see it. took me about 8 min to install everything and connect it to the Tow vehicle. I'm very pleased with it.
Great base plate kit, installed fast without issues on my 2012 jeep wrangler jk,delivered quickly, 5 star service. Thanks etrailer
Working great on my Fiat 500l with the automatic euro transmission. Towed over 10000 miles and was easily installed using etrailer video instructions. Yes you can tow a Fiat 500 with the automatic euro transmission. The firmware was flashed on a recall and revised in the manual. Most dealers don’t even bother checking for the latest version.
The Jeep project went very well everything fit great and worked well. I really love Roadmaster products and quality and your company is the best place to purchase them. I sold the Jeep and replaced it with a new 2019 Chevy Equinox 2.0 L AWD and just purchased and installed the following items from you and installed them, RM-156-25 & RM-156-75 Battery Charge Line Kit, RM-146-7 Flex Coil Kit, RM-523193-4 EZ4 Plate Kit, RM-88333 Custom Seat Adapter, RM-751489 Stop Light Switch Kit and a RM-98160 Second Vehicle Brake Kit w/brakeaway. All these parts were in stock and arrived quickly and normal with you people, I really enjoy the o-line vidios as I do all my own installs. Thank you so much for your great service.
I will attach pictures of my install, you will see how I was able to fab a bracket and attach it to the existing mount on the base plate to mount the brakeaway switch and the air connection for the brake system.
I also fabricated a tail light bar as I didn't want to use mag-lights or splice into the factory lights and bulbs installed into the lights would not work as the factory brake lights will come on when the brake system is applyed and the turn siginals would not be visable.
Thanks for all you do, I would and do recommend you people to everyone who needs your products. Rob
Ordered Product on Saturday afternoon, delivered on Wednesday, Installed on Friday. My 23 Wrangler Sahara 4Xe did take the spacer and washer on each side of the frame and was no problem getting them to fit. The lower passenger outside nut that holds on the bumper will not tighten down all the way, the flange of the factory nut gets caught in a slot in the base plate on that side. Will look into a standard nut to see if that will work - it is tight against the slot and holding.
Great product for my 2014 Wrangler. Good materials, solid attachment to vehicle, and looks good. The e trailer installation video was great for assisting installation. Made the install much quicker and easier. The most difficult procedure for me was disconnecting the wiring harness on the back of the bumper. An old tack puller (or tool of similar design) would have been great for leveraging the pins out of their holes. Cutting the air dam was a slow process to ensure I didn't cut too much. A paper template to mark where to cut the air dam would make this process much simpler. Again, I can't emphasize enough how great the installation video was for making the steps easier.
etrailer service was great. Received my Roadmaster base plate in 3 days. The directions from Roadmaster were fair, but etrailer's video was excellent. I had trouble mounting my base plate as the space between the two baseplate ends were too tight. I needed to use a floor jack and bottle jack to get it on. Once it was in position everything went together fine. I trimmed the Jeep' air dam differently keeping the ends that Roadmaster wants you to cut off. I think it looks better. I also had to modify the center cut in the air dam to accommodate the breakaway switch I have.
