Question:
All the 2012 Patriots that I have seen have fog lights. What would need to be done to install these brackets on a Patriot with fog lights. I just bought a 2012 Patriot.

Expert Reply:
The Roadmaster EZ2 Base Plate Kit, # 521441-1, base plates will fit the 2012 Jeep Patriot with fog lights, but they must have a manual transmission and no front tow hooks. The fog lights do not interfere with the installation of the Roadmaster base plates. I have attached a photo showing the base plates installed on a Jeep Patriot with fog lights.
If your Jeep has an automatic transmission, then it cannot be flat towed. If you do have a manual transmission, then you may be interested in the following items as well to complete your flat towing set up.
Wiring Harness, # RM-155 or Magnetic Tow Lights, # RM-2120
Supplemental Braking System, # RM-9400
Safety Cables, # RM-643
Tow Bar, # RM-522
