I just bought a used 2011 X5 diesel and love it so far, amazing vehicle. I need to install a trailer hitch and I'm wondering what experience people have had with the various hitches and install process. I plan on installing it myself, it looks pretty straight forward, remove rear bumper and bolt it on.
Beyond the bmw $600 hitch, The 3 popular hitches i'm looking at are the Curt, Draw Tite and Hidden, all class III and bolt on, no drilling required. I've read some reviews that say you need to trim the rear fascia a bit to allow certain hitches to fit right. I'm looking for some advice from others on this . I'd rather find a hitch that doesn't require trimming the fascia. Plus I could use some advice, or tips on wiring?
Thanks
Here is mine. Ordered it from Europe. Used Factory harness, and got it coded.
