Base Plates And Flat-Towing Equipment Needed For 2013 Honda CR-V
Question:
I have a Roadmaster Falcon 5250 and want to make sure that I get the right base plate for my 2013 Honda CRV. I have a Blue Ox brake system. Please provide a link to any other accessories needed to complete the set-up.

The base plates I recommend that will work with your Falcon 5250 tow bar is the Roadmaster EZ4 Base Plate Kit, part # RM-521567-4. These will work with the adapters you have mounted on the arms in the photo you sent. You also need safety cables like part # RM-643.
For tow bar wiring I recommend part # RM-15247. You will need to pull fuses per your owner's manual. You can simply flip a switch by using a fuse bypass like part # RM76511 for the number 19 ACC radio fuse and part # RM76512 for the number 20 ACC key lock fuse.
You want to tow your CR-V as level as possible so you may need a high-low adapter. I have attached a link to a helpful article that explains how to choose an adapter you may want to take a look at. I also attached a link to the adapters we offer.
You said you have the brake system so you should be good to go.
