Expert Answers about BMW X3


  • Recommended Trailer Hitch for 2022 BMW X3
  • Yes, the Stealth Hitch # SH59VR will fit your 2022 BMW X3. But this is for for accessories only such as a bike rack, no towing. If you want the option of also being able to tow something, you will need # SH45VR as this part number comes with trailer wiring, accessory receiver and towing ball mount/hitch ball combo. Stealth hitches keep your vehicle looking clean and just like it came from the factory since the receiver and ball mount both can be removed when not in use, so you won't even...

  • Is There a Mounting Bracket that Will Fit a European 13-Way Round Trailer Connector
  • All of the trailer connector mounting brackets we carry are made to accept the standard sizes used in the states so I cannot guarantee that any of them will work with a European 13-Way trailer connector. The most likely candidate is the Mounting Bracket for Pollak 7-Pole, RV-Style Trailer Connector, # PK12711U. I went out to the warehouse and measured one of these brackets so you can compare that to the European trailer connector. The center hole diameter is 2 inches. There are 4 sets...

  • The non-splice trailer wiring kit part # 119250KIT that you referenced is a confirmed fit for your 2014 BMW X3 and will not require any hardwiring since it uses sensors to tap into your vehicle's wiring. This connector does not carry the brake controller circuit for activating trailer brakes though so you'd have to look into converting this to a matching connector like what your trailer has. For that we have a 5-way round socket like part # PK11502 which matches what you mentioned having...
