Question:
I have another question . Can I also use the Westin Safari Light Mounting Bar with the Roadmaster 1528-3 base plate kit

Expert Reply:
The Roadmaster XL Base Plate Kit, part # 1528-3 is a great fit for your 2000 CR-V. This kit has removable arms when you are not towing.
For a tow bar I recommend the Falcon 2 Tow Bar, part # RM-520. This tow bar folds up against the back of your truck when you are not towing.
For lighting I recommend the Roadmaster Tail Light Wiring Kit with Bulbs, part # RM-155. This kit includes the bulbs and does not require tapping into the vehicle wiring. The # 118336 harness is not designed for flat-towing your vehicle.
You will also need safety cables like part # RM-643.
Since supplemental brake systems are now required I recommend part # SM99251.
You want to tow your CR-V as level as possible so a high/low adapter may be needed. I have attached a link to our product page for the adapters you can choose from. I also attached a link to a helpful article that explains how to choose an adapter.
I have attached links to a couple helpful articles you can check out. You will want to check the owner's manual for any restrictions for flat-towing your CR-V.
