Is There a Plug and Play Brake Controller Adapter for a 2021 BMW X3

Question:

Hi. Do you sell a wiring harness for connecting a Primus brake controller to a 2021 BMW X3? If not, do you have any suggestions on how to tow with a 2021 BMW X3 it obviously needs a brake controller? Thanks!

I have a solution for you, but there is not a plug and play adapter for a Tekonsha brake controller to be used with a 2021 BMW X3. You could hardwire your Tekonsha Primus # TK90160 into the vehicle. Or you could use a wireless brake controller like the Curt Echo Mobile # C51180, which is controlled with your smart phone (iOS 8.0/Android 4.4 or newer required). The Echo provides you with the same proportional braking as the Primus, but in a plug and play solution that's extremely popular with our neighbors who have foreign cars and don't want to splice into the wiring inside the vehicle.

I've linked a review video of the Echo for you to check out, but it's almost always our recommended solution for brake controllers in vehicles like your X3.
