Glad I didn't! It was actually easier to mount than the roof rack I bought. I read the comments and took the advice of buying a new drill bit. I recommend you use sandwich baggies and a magic marker to put all the push pins and screws in so you can keep track of where they all come from. removing the fascia from the front of the car was intimidating but once I started it was easy. It will stick at the wheel wells. lift the fender edge to release the fascia on bothe sides.Once the fascia is off you'll be amazed at what passes for a bumper these days. The base plate is actually stronger than the original bumper. Hardest part of the job is partcially drilling the spot welds that hold the bumper bracket. Once drilled I used a 4lb maul and a chisel. Drill a little whack it, repeat till weld breaks. If your wearing shorts during this process get a towel to cover your legs, man those red hot bits of steel burn! Be sure to give the frame edge a love tap or two if it bends during this process. If your doing this alone use a screw driver through one of the holes to hold baseplate on place on one side as you work opposite side. Vise grips to hold in place on both sides. be sure they are facing down so they wont be in the way as you put fascia up to test placenment.. if all good drill one hole on each side and put in "Lock Tighted" screw/ washer/ nut. Finish all holes and cables and replace fascia. all done! No jack required. I sat on ground on carpet. Instructions are very good and clear. Seriously... don't pay someone to mount this for you. save your money. ### ⭐⭐ 2.0 out of 5 stars Width a bit off *by M***K on Reviewed in the United States on February 5, 2024* The hardest part of installation is the sides of the baseplate are extremely tight. Once you manage to overcome that hurdle and slide it on you are one bfh away from getting it set. I'm very leary of blue ox. My first time using the new baseplate and new blue ox towbar my towbar got trashed. Bent 90Β°! Maybe find a better brand if you can! When my towbar was bent I was stuck. I didn't want another blue ox pos, but I didn't wanna remove and install another baseplate either. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5.0 out of 5 stars Honda CRV or Element -- works great! *by L***T on Reviewed in the United States on July 8, 2019* Fit great on 04 Honda Element and we have an 05 CRV and it fit that as well. We towed the Element behind our RV and it did great! --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - πŸ›’ **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** β€” Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** β€” Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - πŸ’° **No Hidden Fees** β€” All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - πŸ”„ **15-Day Free Returns** β€” Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - πŸ”’ **Secure Payments** β€” Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** β€” Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.be/products/90151650-bx2232-base-plate](https://www.desertcart.be/products/90151650-bx2232-base-plate) --- *Product available on Desertcart Belgium* *Store origin: BE* *Last updated: 2026-04-29*
