Towing a MINI - Connection to the car question

I know you have to attach a mount to the MINI. Is there a mount that, when not attached to the tow bars, doesn't show at all? My wife is very particular with the look of her car. She doesn't want to attach a mount to the MINI with anything showing when not in tow.

    For both Blue Ox and Roadmaster, there are two tubes that show and a hook for the safety cables. As been said above, they are pretty small but they are there. If you send me a private message with your email address, I'll send you a picture of what our MINI roadster looks like with the baseplate attached.

    Go to etrailer.com and search for a base plate that will fit your Mini. Most likely there will be an installation video that will answer your question.

    on my saturn I have a blue ox mount that consists of two round "pipes" that the connections are slid into. they are not invisible but certainly not obnoxious.
