Trailer Wiring Harness for 2011 BMW X3
Question:
Hi! I already have a trailer hitch, but no wiring harness on my 2011 BMW X3. Is there a way to install one, and what would it cost? Thanks!

There is definitely a trailer wiring harness for your 2011 BMW X3, the Curt Powered Tail Light Converter with 4-Pole Flat Trailer Connector # C59236.
The price can be found on the product page, and as far as doing it yourself, this is a project that many people do themselves. I have added a link to the instructions as well as a video showing this harness being installed on a 2011 BMW X3 for you to check out so you can see if it's something you want to attempt or take to a local auto shop to have them do it.
I also recommend using Dielectric Grease for Electrical Connectors # 11755 to help prevent any type of corrosion in your connector; using it will increase your 4-way's durability and extend its lifespan.
