Cost to Outfit for Dinghy Towing
I'm looking into outfitting my Class B+ Phoenix Cruiser and 2010 Chevy Malibu for 4 wheels down towing. For the tow assembly, modifications to Malibu, and a braking system I was quoted $6,000. Quote ...

I spent about 33 bucks.
$8 for the steel to build the base plates.
$25 tail lite sockets, bulbs, wire and plug
Already had the RM towbar.
But I don't have brakes yet, and probably won't have.
I know, this dint help you one bit,....sorry
The biggest ripoff, is the price of base plates,....$3-500
A lousy $139 for a frame mounted trailer hitch, requiring lots a steel, and very difficult to build.
And $3-500 for base plates requiring 1/2 as much steel, and not hard to build.
I don't know why.
