I recently bought a 2007 Honda CRV as a toad. When I looked at the Blue Ox base plate installation looked like some major surgery seemed involved. The Demco plate seems much less physical to the car. Any opinions on one vs the other.

Dsen, welcome to iRV2.

One of our members installed a Blue Ox base plate on his '07 CRV. It does take a bit of work, and he has a write up on it on his web site.

My son and I installed a Blue OX base plate on our 2007 CRV. This installation is not for the faint of heart. It took us about 5 or 6 hours to install. That said, once installed the Blue OX plate is very solid and is nearly invisible. I am very satisified with it.
