Trailer Wiring Recommendation for 2017 BMW X5
Question:
I am looking at purchasing a Curt vehicle to trailer wiring harness for a 2017 BMW X5. When I plug in the information of the car it brings up an adapter kit for a Subaru. Is this correct? Maybe they use the same. If so, where does it plug in.. thx

Expert Reply:
For your 2017 BMW X5 we have trailer wiring harnesses that will fit and work well, but they are universal style harnesses since our manufacturers don't have a custom made option at this time. So the best option for that is the ZCI harness part # 119250KIT which uses sensors instead of splices to tap into your vehicle wiring. I attached an install video of this kit on a similar 2015 X5 to show you the process as well. This fits other vehicles as well.
