For your 2014 Honda CR-V, using the Blue Ox Patriot Portable Braking System # BLU37TR, you're going to need to add the:
-12 Volt Outlet Kit, 20 amps # RM-9332 to be able to properly power and operate your system.
Additionally, if you are interested in a complete setup, you're also going to need:
-A base plate kit like # RM-521567-5,
-A set of tow bars like # RM-676,
&
-A wiring kit like # RM-154.
Additionally, the radio fuse will need to be removed prior to any flat towing you do, so instead of pulling that fuse manually every time, I also recommend installing the Roadmaster FuseMaster Fuse Bypass # RM76511, which will allow you to disconnect the fuse with a flip of a switch inside your car, making the whole process much easier.
Ii have also included a couple of installation videos for you to check out as well.
