• How To Add Taillights to the Thule EasyFold Bike Rack
  There a few options to add tail lights to the Thule EasyFold XT 2 E-Bike Platform Rack part # TH903202. You could use the brackets part # BK70BB and LED light kit part # 98174LED which is designed to add lights to cargo carriers. Since the rack is plastic the only way to really allow these to mount is to use zip ties. This would be the only semi permanent solution to adding the brackets to the bottom of the bike rack. The easiest and less invasive way to add lights is to simply use the...

  To use your Roadmaster StowMaster # RM-501 on your 2010 Hyundai Tucson you will need to find a Roadmaster base plate kit 1628-1 as we no longer carry this.

  Trailer brake controllers such as the Tekonsha Prodigy P2 # 90885 are for use with trailers that have either electric or electric-over-hydraulic brakes but they are not suitable for use when flat-towing a vehicle. The presence of the trailer brake controller in your RV does not affect flat towing.

• Which Tow Bar Light Kit for Flat-Towing 2011GMC Acadia
  The RoadMaster Bulb and Socket Set for Tail Light Wiring Kits, part # RM-155-2, is not compatible with your Acadia lighting system. These incandescent bulbs will not fit in your tail light housing due to the presence of the circuit board that powers the Acadia's LED lights. Also, they would generate much more heat than the specified LED bulbs and might interfere with the nearby circuitry. If you will be towing your vehicle only on occasion, you may want to consider a magnetic towing light...

• Base Plate Kit Recommendation for a 2002 Saturn S-Series for a Roadmaster Falcon 5250 Tow Bar
  Since you already have the Roadmaster Falcon 5250 tow bar, I recommend using Roadmaster base plates. You could use Blue Ox base plates, but you would have to use an adapter between the tow bar and the base plates. If your Saturn is a 4 door sedan model, then I would recommend the Roadmaster Classic Base Plate Kit, # 154-2. If you have a wagon or 2 door coupe model, then I recommend the Roadmaster EZ Base Plate Kit, # 52181-1. I frequently find that the Quick Disconnect Base Bar Assembly,...

• Why Can Optronics Magnetic Tow Lights Only be Used with Vehicles Under 80 Inches
  There are certain lighting requirements for vehicles or trailers that are over 80 inches wide that magnetic lights such as # TLL21RK cannot provide. You would need front and rear clearance lamps that are mounted at a 45 degree angle (PC rated). So if the back of the vehicle was a square for example, the light would be at the corner pointed half way between the side and the rear of the vehicle. They need to be placed as high as possible. You also need rear identification lamps (3) centered...
