With the design of your hitch and the cross tube being completely hidden the Curt Easy Mount Bracket for 4- or 5-Way Flat and 6- or 7-Way Trailer Connectors part # C58000 is a great option. It will attach to the receiver tube opening and allow you to attach both your 7-way and 4-way without any modifications to your vehicle.
I've linked a video for you showing how it attaches to the hitch for you. view full answer...
The Inno roof rack # INXB100-2, and # INXS100 is a great choice for your 2010 BMW 335i coupe. Any rack is going to take a little time to take off. But the great thing about that is the more you install and remove the rack the easier and faster it gets.
For a compatible cargo box I recommend the Horizon, # SR7011.
For a SUP/surfboard carrier I recommend the Thule SUP Shuttle, # TH811XT. It will fit the Inno crossbars. I have linked a video review of this carrier as well.

We have several options for you to carry your bikes.
The Curt Hitch # C11033 will fit your 2007 BMW 328xi sedan. This would be my recommendation for carrying Bicycles. You could then choose a bike rack like the Curt C18085 to carry 1 or 2 bikes. There is no advantage to purchasing a ballmount and trailer wiring before you need it, but you certainly can do so if you want to.
You could also add a roof rack. You will need 3 items for a roof rack. First, Thule Rapid Podium Roof Mounted... view full answer...
The roof rack I recommend for your 2015 BMW 328i Wagon is the Thule WingBar Roof Rack # TH711220 with the Feet # TH710601, and Fit Kit # TH186007. This rack has an aerodynamic shape that works to minimize wind noise and drag. The black color of the AeroBlade Edge will look great with your 328i. This rack will work great to transport your bikes or your canoe.
While the roof rack is installed it is not recommended to open the sunroof if the sunroof adds any height to the roof when retracted.... view full answer...
Yes, the install of the Draw Tite hitch part # 75600 that you referenced on your 2014 BMW X5 does require some minor fascia trimming.
I attached an install video for this hitch that shows the trimming as well as a diagram I took from the install instructions that shows this as well. view full answer...
We don't offer custom mirrors like the # CM11401 for your X7, but we offer some universal-type mirrors that would work nicely for you. My go-to recommendation is the K-Source Universal towing mirror, part # KS3990. These mirrors fit most factory mirrors from 4-1/2 to 11-1/2 inches in height, and use ratcheting rubber straps for a tight fit that helps limit vibration. In the almost 600 product reviews we've received from our customers, these mirrors carry a 4.4 out of 5 star rating, which... view full answer...
For a 50 mm hitch ball like you need for your European Thule Easy Fold XT you'd want the Brophy Hitch Ball part # EH53C-C. Then for a ball mount the Draw Tite part # BWBMHD30210 would work great if you had a 2 inch hitch installed like the Draw Tite part # 76288 that is a confirmed fit for your 2022 BMW X5. view full answer...
We don't have any specific recommendations, but any trusted mechanic would usually be able to complete a hitch installation without difficulty. However, a mostly-concealed design hitch like the Draw-Tite # 76226 you'd looked at would require that the bumper and bumper cover which is a pretty extensive process. Because of that, your local body shop would be a better choice as they'd be more familiar with removing and reinstalling parts like bumper covers/fascia.

The best trailer wiring harness option for a 2009 BMW 3 Series is the ZCI Circuit Protected Vehicle Wiring Harness part # 119250KIT since you don't have to splice but if you don't mind doing this you can save some money using the Vehicle Wiring Harness Kit part # C59496.
The main difference between the trailer wiring harness options for this vehicle are indeed amp ratings but also what comes with like a circuit tester etc and brand. They all do the same thing though in the end. view full answer...
The Draw-Tite Max-Frame Trailer Hitch Receiver - Custom Fit - Class III - 2" # 75600 for your 2018 BMW X5 does not have a designated mounting location for your 4-way trailer connector. So, for the ZCI Circuit Protected Vehicle Wiring Harness w/ 4-Pole Flat Trailer Connector and Installation Kit # 119250KIT which is a confirmed to fit option. You can run the 4-way connector out the same bumper hole as the hitch or create a separate hole.
My recommendation is either use the Hopkins Knockout... view full answer...
On your 2012 BMW Series 1 your only option is the Curt Class I 1-1/4 inch hitch # C11184 which has a max tongue weight of 200lbs and a max gross trailer rating of 2,000 lbs. So, you could potentially haul your two motorcycles on your trailer but there are some things we need to make sure of. First make sure that your vehicle can handle that weight. The hitch may be able to, but you need to confirm your vehicles limits. Usually you'll find it in your owners manual.
Then we need to make... view full answer...
I recommend the Draw Tite Class III Max, part # 75600 for your 2017 BMW X5. The installation for the hitch is rather involved, so I'd recommend contacting local BMW certified body shops for assistance with installing the hitch.

For your 2022 BMW X5 with the M Sport package we have the Stealth hitch part # SH25VR as a confirmed fit that would work great. This is a totally invisible hitch that comes with everything needed to tow like trailer wiring and a ball mount attachment. If instead you were wanting to just carry a bike rack or cargo carrier you'd want the # SH89VR which only comes with the hitch opening portion. view full answer...
Yes, there are trailer hitches that will fit your 2009 BMW 328i sedan. You can use # 24857 that you have referenced.
If you plan on doing some towing, you will need the recommended ball mount part # 3593. For a 1-7/8 inch ball use # 19256 and for a 2 inch ball use # 19258. For trailer wiring you can use # C59236 to add a 4-Way flat trailer connector.

The 17-3/4 inches is the distance from the center of one of the removable tabs to the center of the other removable tab on base plates # BX1300.
For a compatible tow bar I recommend the Alpha, # BX7365. It has a 6,500 pound capacity and comes with safety cables. I have included a link to a video review of this tow bar for you.
For lighting I recommend going with a magnetic kit such as # RM-2120, or the trunk mount, # RM-2120. I would not necessarily recommend a kit that splices into the... view full answer...
Brake controller installs can seem overwhelming to some, especially if the vehicle is a newer BMW, but the process is pretty simple and doesn't require getting into the computer of the vehicle like who you talked to implied. So long story short all your mechanic would need to install the Prodigy P3 part # 90195 is the part # ETBC7 and you'd be set. view full answer...
Yes, for your 2019 BMW X5 I highly recommend the Yakima FullBack 2-Bike Rack # Y02634 or the 3-Bike version # Y02633. I verified with Yakima that this is confirmed to fit your X5.
This is an excellent trunk-mount carrier that features SuperCush anti-sway cradles and ratcheting straps to hold the bikes at 3 different point for an extremely stable ride and rubber pads on all the contact points to prevent any scratches on the BMW. Integrated locks are also included to help protect your investments.... view full answer...
I have a solution for you, however, there's not a trailer hitch available for a 2006 BMW 330xi. Instead, I'd recommend a trunk mounted bike rack. Outright, this will be a far more economical solution, and allow for a little more flexibility when not on a trip.
I recommend the OutWay # TH45JV. It is the most popular 2-bike truck mount carrier all of the top features. It is the easiest to load and unload and can be accomplished in mere seconds. It has 2 retractable cables and a more... view full answer...
For your non-standard 2021 BMW X5 tire size of 315/30-22, BMW does not recommend using tire chains with these specific sizes. However, many car manufacturers make these kinds of recommendations in order to wash their hands of any liability if any damage occurs to components inside the wheel wells.
With that being said, the absolute safest (and only) option we carry for your tire size is the Konig Premium Self-Tensioning Snow Tire Chains - Diamond Pattern - D Link - K-Summit XXL # TH2004565767.... view full answer...
