Recommended Trailer Hitch for a 2021 BMW X5 for Kuat 4 BIke Rack
Question:
We also have a 2021 bmw x5. To put a hitch that can carry our Kuat 4 bikes tray - is that complicated. I read that there are a lot of wiring and re wiring involved since the car is too equipped with sensors. Ps - where are you guys located? Thank You soo much. Lynn

It's not complicated at all to use your Kuat 4 Bike Rack with your BMW X5, you're just going to need at least a class III hitch like the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # C85VV.
I'm not going to sit here and tell you that it's an easy job to put the hitch on, because it is going to require you to do some trimming, loosen/remove the fascia/some underbody panels, and temporarily remove the bumper, which isn't exactly simple - especially if you're not super mechanically inclined.
That being said, I'd highly recommend just taking to a professional it'll be much easier that way. If you're interested we actually have a pretty cool tool for that; it's the "Installer Locator". It's located on every product page, but it can be easy to miss so I've gone ahead and linked it to the bottom of this answer page.
Basically, all you'd need to do is click the link and enter your ZIP in the box. From here, we'll show you all of the local shops in your area that'd be able to install your hitch.
If you have any questions don't hesitate to come back and we'll be happy to help.
