Question:
Viewed your excellent videos for the Blue Ox and Roadmaster installations of base plates for the 2017 Chevy Spark. There doesnt seem to be one for Demco and the pdf link doesnt seem to work for me. Any download available for the factory instructions from Demco?

We currently haven't had the opportunity to install the Demco Tabless Base Plate Kit # DM9519326 on a 2017 Chevy Spark (Manual transmission - excluding ACTIV) as of January 2020, but the link for the instructions should be working now so you can reference them if you are interested in this system.
For a complete flat towing setup you will need a base plate kit, tow bar, safety cables, vehicle tow bar wiring, a supplemental braking system, and possibly a high-low adapter. If you do not have all of these components I recommend the following with the tabless base plate kit you referenced:
Commander II Tow Bar (with safety cables) - # DM9511012
Diode Wiring Kit # DM9523057 OR Bulb and Socket Kit # DM9523058 (for wiring and some accessories)
Brake Kit # SM99251 for hydraulic motorhome brakes OR # SM99243 for air motorhome brakes
You may also need a high-low adapter. I have attached out selection and a helpful article to help you determine what you'll need for your setup. It's also worth noting that there is a tech bulletin for your vehicle which I have attached for you to reference.
Please note that it is important to check out your owner's manual for specific instructions on flat towing your Chevy Spark.
