Expert Reply:

For a mounting bracket for the 6-pin socket, I'd recommend using the part # RM-910030-5 bracket. The break away switch already has a bracket affixed to it, but you do NOT want to sink the screws for the brackets into the crossbar for the base plates, as drilling into it could weaken it, I'd recommend using two of the # 18140 No-Drill brackets that would attach to the crossbar using the included pipe clamps.

I've linked to an install video for the Curt # C48FR base plate kit.
