In the 2005 X5 Accessory brochure (available at the BMW dealer), you will find it on page 20:

A. Hitch Step with Lock Pin
Durable Cast-aluminum step folds down when a little lift is needed, folds up to reveal an engraved X5 logo.

Part no:82 11 0 027 933

Price: $49.00

Hope that helps.

Anyone know if this hitch cover has a lock to it? I've already had someone steal my rubber receiver cap, so if this thing has a lock to it, I may try it.

I know it has a lock pin, so you have stability when stepping on it, but it wasn't clear if the lock also prevents theft.

I bought a locking hitch pin, $25 on ebay. Works great.

autobarn has them for $19.95 ... $25 is expensive.

$25 no tax, including shipping, for a class III (not II) no - that is a great price.

Anyone know if hitch lock will work with the hitch cover above?

if it is held in with a pin, which it probably is, then a hitch lock will work.
