There are a number of parts needed to flat tow your 2011 Honda Accord, which I'll list for you:
- Base Plate Kit: Demco Classic Base Plate Kit # DM9518275
- Tow Bar: etrailer SD Non-Binding Tow Bar # e34ZR
- Wiring Kit: Roadmaster 4-Diode Universal Wiring Kit for Towed Vehicles # RM-152-1676-7
- Supplemental Braking System: Brake Buddy Classic 3 Portable Supplemental Braking System # HM39494
- BrakeBuddy Towed Vehicle Battery Charge Kit # BB54FR
The Demco Classic Base Plates give your car a clean look, and the SD tow bar has long arms which make it easier to maneuver when towing, along with integrated safety cables and an adjustable tilting head so a high-low adapter won't be needed. Having these features on a tow bar means you won't have to purchase them separately, saving you additional expenses.
I really like the diode wiring kit because it is designed to prevent any type of electrical feedback, keeping your Honda's electrical system safe, and the charge line kit will keep your Accord's battery charged as it is being towed. As for the braking system, the Brake Buddy is easy to use by plugging into your 12 volt outlet, and has settings so you can determine the best braking power for your Accord.
