Yes, the EcoHitch Hidden Trailer Hitch Receiver # 306-X7277 will fit on your 2016 BMW i3 Range Extender.

These lights are needed if you are using a hitch mounted accessory which impairs the view of the tail lights on your BMW. view full answer...

Yes, the EcoHitch part # 306-X7277 that you referenced does fit your 2017 BMW i3 REx model. I checked with EcoHitch to confirm this. view full answer...
First thing to check is to make sure the ground of the # 119250KIT is connected to a clean metal surface. It's possible the ground is weaker now and the brighter circuits of the stop/turn circuits just can't pull enough amperage to power. Since both stoplight and blinker circuits aren't working this is what I think is the most likely issue.

I have attached the installation instructions for the Curt Powered Tail Light Converter with 4-Pole Flat Trailer Connector part # C59236 below. That said, this kit is universal so exact steps for anyone car is not avavailbe. The harness does not pull power or send power to the vehicle tail lights, it picks up the signal and then pulls power from the battery for the trailer lights. There is no learning process for the converter. view full answer...

For your 2018 BMW i3 we only have the 2 inch hitch part # 306-X7277 that you referenced. Based on how long your vehicle has been available I would not anticipate a 1-1/4 inch hitch being released for it. The 2 inch hitch is widely preferred due to it's higher weight capacities and more accessories being made for it. To convert this to a 1-1/4 inch hitch you could use the part # HT02. view full answer...

The ISSE Hybrid Snow Socks # TCH70 referenced in your question do indeed have a maximum speed rating of 30 mph. This speed limit is generally the same for any tire traction device, including snow chains and cables.
The speed limit is in place because going at a higher speed can cause the sock (or chains or cables) to start to come off of the tire due to the speed. Also keep in mind that while a snow sock is going to certainly provide some additional traction in the snow, it does not provide... view full answer...
