Trailer Hitch and Wiring for a 2015 BMX X6
Question:
Will the 13077 work with a 2015 BMW X6? It is not the M series. What fascia trimming might I have to do?
asked by: Chris A
Expert Reply:
Yes, Curt trailer hitch # 13077 will fit your 2015 BMW X6. The amount of trimming of the fascia isn't specified by Curt but it will take place around the hitch receiver. In the video showing installation on an X5 you can see the trimmed area is minimal. It will be comparable on your X6 but could be a little bit more.
If you plan on doing some towing I recommend etrailer ball mount kit # 989900. It comes with 2 ball mounts; one with a 3/4 inch rise or 2 inch drop and one with a 2-3/4 inch rise or 4 inch drop. It also includes a 1-7/8 inch ball, 2 inch ball, hitch pin with clip, and a storage bag.
If the ball mount kit does not have the right rise or drop to tow the trailer level, use the link I have included that explains how to measure to choose a ball mount to tow the trailer level.
And for trailer wiring I recommend the ZCI harness # 119250KIT so you won't have to splice into the vehicle wiring.
