We purchased our first Motorhome, a 2008 Tiffin Allegro FRED 32LA. We traded in our Sunnybrook fifth-wheel and have our 2006 GMC diesel up for sale. This switch over necessitated the conversion of our 2006 Honda Element into a tow-able Dinghy. In this thread I will install Roadmaster's 1541-3 base plates and install a 6 way female socket for the lights.
I chose Roadmaster over Blue Ox for one very simple reason, the installation of the base plates doesn't require any modification to the frame. When I first researched Blue Ox's installation instructions, they wanted me to modify the Honda frame by removing certain rivets. This modification would mean that I could never restore the Honda to orignal, if I so desired.
The first 4 photos are of the Roadmaster base plates. I purchased mine at www.ontheball.com, they saved me close to $100.00 on the parts.
