Hi Lawrence!

Since you already have a Blue Ox tow bar, you will want to go with a Blue Ox base plate. For that, you will want the Blue Ox Base Plate Kit - Removable Arms # BX2232. I included an install video we did with this base plate on an '02 CR-V for you to check out as well. It will be the same on your '03.

Do you have the rest of the needed parts to get your '03 CR-V set up for flat towing?

Hi Lawrence, Did you find the Blue Ox base plate kit helpful for your 2003 CR-V? I'm curious if you were able to get everything set up for flat towing, as it could give others confidence when setting up their vehicles.
