Roadmaster attaches towing brackets permanently to the car, then attaches a removable baseplate (which comes with the tow bar) to those brackets.
This is not necessarily true. Roadmaster does not call their brackets "baseplates".
In my case, the Roadmaster 'EZ2 Twistlock' Series 'Hidden' mounting "brackets" (2 ea) are my "baseplates" and are permanently mounted behind the front fascia. The visible portion of the brackets (the "front arms") can be easily removed when not towing - I simply twist the front arms 90° to convert from towed car to road car in seconds! The "baseplate" brackets are 95% hidden and can only be seen by getting down and looking directly into the small slot in the fascia. The front arms are stored in a plastic bin in one of the motor home's storage compartments when not in actual use and the cross bar (that connects the two arms) is stored on the motor home's hitch when not in use
The base plate (2) and the front arms (2) were part of the "bracket" (baseplate) purchase and none of it came with the tow bar.
The cross bar that connects the two arms,does come with the Roadmaster tow bar.
