The Trailer hitch is a dealer installed accesssory...

I am going to take delivery at the Performance center in South Carolina.

Yep, sure can - mine is being done next week. But your dealer has to make the arrangements before pickup in SC.

Be sure to check the ball tongue height that you need for your trailer to ride level. The standard install on an E70 leaves the ball much lower than it is on an E53 X5 std. install. So low, that I had to flip the ball over to the other side of the tongue for my trailer.

BTW if the ball is stalled correctly (lost of torque) you would need a serious breaker bar or a long cheater to flip the ball.
