Question:
From photos shared by a used car dealer in another city, it appears that the installed tow base plate is this part. Is this Roadmaster capable of being used with blue ox ‘arms’ or ‘yoke’ connectors.

Hello Gary,
Since you identified that the base plate on your car is the Roadmaster Direct-Connect Base Plate Kit - Removable Arms # RM72VT, and you already have Blue Ox tow bars, you’ll need the Roadmaster Base Plate Adapter Brackets for Blue Ox RV-Mounted Tow Bars # RO64FR.
Which Blue Ox tow bars do you have?
