Hello Ron, thanks for getting in touch. Yes, we do carry the Blue Ox Base Plate # BX2232 which is the correct fit for your 2004 Honda Element. This base plate is directly compatible with other Blue Ox brand tow bars. It can be adapter to other brands of tow bar if needed. Roadmaster tow bars require the adapter part # RM-031, and Demco tow bars need the # DM9523041 adapter. If you already have a tow bar, let me know which one you have an I can confirm the correct adapter. If you still need a tow bar and you other flat tow components, here is what I recommend for your full flat tow setup:

- Blue Ox Base Plate Kit - Removable Arms # BX2232

- Blue Ox Ascent Non-Binding Tow Bar - RV Mount - 2" Hitch - 7,500 lbs # BX4370

- Roadmaster 4-Diode Universal Wiring Kit for Towed Vehicles - 7-Way to 6-Way Coiled Adapter Cord # RM-15267

- Demco Stay-IN-Play Duo Flat Tow Brake System for RVs w/ Hydraulic Brakes - Proportional # SM99251

@RonS Hey Ron, yes we do stock the Roadmaster base plate for the 2004 Honda Element, part # 1541-5. This will be compatible with your Falcon tow bar. It sounds like you already have your safety cables, but I am not quite clear on the other parts you mentioned. Part 3136-3 comes back as a Roadmaster base plate for a 2005-2007 Saturn Ion. I am going to go ahead and do a list of all the parts I recommend (minus the base plate, tow bar, and safety cables). Go over this list and check that you have everything. Reply below and let me know if there is anything you are missing. I will also list the Brake Buddy parts you mentioned. - Roadmaster 4-Diode Universal Wiring Kit for Towed Vehicles - 7-Way to 6-Way Coiled Adapter Cord # RM-15267 - Replacement Breakaway Kit for Brake Buddy Classic and Select Flat Tow Brake Systems # HM39340 - Replacement Dash Mount Connector for Brake Buddy Systems - Classic II and 3 - Select II and 3 # HM39342 Let me know if there is anything else I can do.
