The first thing you need to do when you're wanting to flat tow any vehicle is to check your specific owner's manual to ensure your vehicle is capable of being flat towed. Then you'll want to follow any steps it lists to get your vehicle ready to hook up and flat tow. You'll need a tow bar, tow bar wiring kit, base plate, braking system, and safety cables. I have the following recommendations for you below:
Tow Bar: Roadmaster Falcon All Terrain, Non-Binding Tow Bar - Motorhome Mount - 2" Hitch - 6,000lbs Item # RM-522. The hassle-free latches on this hitch-mounted tow bar let you easily release your car, even at a hard angle or on unlevel ground. Stainless steel, telescoping arms and large hookup radius make connecting a snap.
Tow Bar Wiring: Roadmaster Universal Hy-Power Diode Wiring Kit Item # RM-154. This diode Kit allows you to use your Chevrolet Spark's tail lights and wiring system while preventing feedback from your RV.
Base Plate: Roadmaster Crossbar-Style Base Plate Kit - Removable Arms Item # 523174-1. Roadmaster is known for quality and these crossbar-style brackets are virtually invisible, easy to mount, and simple to remove.
Braking System: Brake Buddy Select 3 Portable Supplemental Braking System - Proportional Item # HM39524. This system will give you intense, emergency braking or steady, smooth braking in a single portable system. The included charge line kit will keep your vehicle's battery charged while towing.
Safety Cables: Curt Single Hook, Coiled Safety Cables with S-Hooks - 42" Long - 3,500lbs - Qty 2 Item # C80136. The coiled design eliminates slack - keeps cables from dragging on the ground.
