Blue Ox Acclaim Tow Bar (5,000 lbs.) & Baseplate Combo fits 1998-2005 Volkswagen Beetle (Incl. TDI & Gas Turbo)

The Acclaim to bar is for use with towed vehicles with a gross weight of up to 5,000 lbs. The Acclaim attaches to a 2" trailer hitch ball and the safety cables are included.

Blue Ox baseplates are custom designed to be easy on your suspension and even easier on the eye, because they are designed with hidden mounting reinforcements bolted directy to the chassis. Vehicle specific baseplate is integrated into the individual bumper design of the towed vehicle. When you aren't towing, just remove the tabs to make your baseplate virtually invisible to the casual observer.

Important Towability Note: Blue Ox offers the above baseplate for your vehicle, but how that vehicle is equipped (i.e. automatic transmission, 4-wheel drive, etc.) must be considered when determining its towability. Please read the owner's manual and/or consult your dealer to determine if your vehicle is flat towable and the correct towing procedures for your vehicle. Additional equipment such as a transmission pump or driveshaft disconnect may be required and are sold separately. Failure to comply with these requirements may result in damage to the towed vehicle or personal injury.
