Question:
Ive got a 2018 mazda miata mx5 with a manual transmission that I want to set up to flat tow. Besides the base plate, what else do I need? What tow bars will work with the roadmaster base plate? Thanks.

Hey Bob, for the Roadmaster base plate kit part # RM-524450-5 that fits your 2018 Mazda Miata you could use any Roadmaster tow bar that is compatible with direct connect tow base plate kits like the Falcon part # RM-522. This style of tow bar is the type that stores on the motorhome which is another way of saying that it fits into the trailer hitch of the tow vehicle.
I attached a link to a page that has all of the compatible ones too for you to check out.

Hi Jameson What kit would I need for the electrical connection with this car, there are two listed I think. Also what is the deal with the limited time on free shipping? You guys have always had free shipping over 99 IIRC.
