Expert Reply:

The base plate kit for your 2012 Honda CR-V, part # RM-521567-4 will work with all current Roadmaster tow bars.

I would recommend using the RoadMaster Falcon All Terrain Tow Bar, # RM-522, with this base plate kit. We have a demonstration video featuring this tow bar for you to check out, see link.

Other tow bars can be used with the Roadmaster base plates. We have a Base Plate Adapter Table, see link, that you can use to select a base plate adapter if you are looking at a different brand of tow bar. I always recommend staying with the same tow bar and base plate manufacturer whenever possible because their items have been engineered and tested to work together.

To complete your towing setup, I recommend safety cables # RM-643 and light kit # RM-2120.

Finally, you will need a supplemental braking system, required in most states, for your CR-V. The Roadmaster Even Brake Supplemental Braking System, # RM-9400, is a good option.
