All of the hitches offered for your 2008 BMW X5 are 2-inch Class III types, including the Draw-Tite # 75600, and all can be seen on the link provided at right. None requires drilling but it is necessary to trim the rear fascia.

Many of our customers choose to do a self-installation, relying on our videos (see link at right) for guidance. The only specialized tool needed to install a hitch, generally speaking, is a torque wrench which is needed to tighten the included installation hardware to the manufacturer's spec.
Apart from that most hitch installations can be completed with commonly available tools many of us have in the garage or work shop.

We do not recommend local shops but many auto repair or muffler shops that have a vehicle lift will do the install for you, for a fee of course. You might take a look at the video first to decide if this is a project you wish to tackle on your own.
