Are Replacement Plastic Rivets Included with Curt Trailer Hitch for a 2011 BMW X3

Question:

Does this item include the plastic rivets that I will be punching out? I see an image that shows brand new plastic rivets, but I cant find anything that says they are included.

The replacement rivets are included with Curt trailer hitch # C13316 for your 2011 BMW X3 but you will need to obtain a plastic rivet gun locally to install them. I have included a link to the hitch instructions that does say the rivets are included.

If you plan on doing some towing you might be interested in etrailer ball mount kit # EBMK4. It comes with a ball mount with a 2-3/4 inch rise or 4 inch drop, interchangeable ball set, hitch pin with clip, and a storage bag.

If the ball mount kit does not have the right rise or drop to tow the trailer level, use the link I have included that explains how to measure to choose a ball mount to tow the trailer level.

And for trailer wiring use # C59236. I have linked a video showing the wiring installation. The vehicle is not the exact year as yours but you can use it as a guide.
