The ZCI Circuit Protected Vehicle Wiring Harness kit # 119250KIT includes a circuit tester like # PTW2993 to help you find the correct vehicle wires for harness installation. Since wire colors are not always consistent across production runs testing is the best way to ensure proper connection. This harness is universal so it will definitely work for you, but the set-up steps outlined in the linked instructions need to be followed exactly.
The linked installation video shows this kit in use on a 2013 X5.
