Installation Instructions Included with Draw-Tite # 75600 Hitch for 2013 BMW X5
Question:
Hello. I am researching purchasing a trailer hitch for our X5. I think it looks like the trim will have to be trimmed. Can you confirm all relevant instructions are included in the pack supplied? I wouldnt want to get halfway through the job and find I was stuck. Many thanks.

The Draw-Tite Class III Trailer Hitch # 75600 includes full installation instructions as well as almost all the installation hardware that'll be needed. The plastic push rivets included with the hardware won't work on X5 models after the 2010 model year. You'll need to obtain those from your BMW dealer.
