I did some checking and your 2014 Kia Soul with a manual transmission can be flat towed. Your Roadmaster tow bar can be used but you will need a new base plate kit as they are all custom fit for specific vehicles. For a base plate kit you'd need the # RM-522114-4. Aside from that most of the flat towing components from your old vehicle can swap to the Soul but it really depends on what you have. If it's a universal lighting system like the part # RM-2120, that will easily fit the Soul.
If it's a supplemental braking system like the Blue Ox Patriot part # BLU37TR that installs in the floor board of the vehicle this will also easily transfer.
If you can get me more details on what you currently have I can see what would be your best options.

Thinking of purchasing a 2015 Kia Soul with a manual transmission to flat tow on our new motor home were getting later this month. What setup would you recommend to make that happen and what would be the cost? THanks
