Does it come with plastic connection that fits over the ball joint.

Yep. It comes with it. Just snap it on.

Are 2 rods included for this price?

I ordered two and received two in the package. So that leads me to believe they're sold individually.

Works and Fits Great!

This item fits as it should and functions as it should. I was kind of surprised by the price tag as I would think a little rod like this wouldn't cost more than $10. But I needed it to hold up my cover. So I bought it and it works!
