My Execuhitch Arrived Today

Finally my Execuhitch was cleared with customs today.
A big thanks to the guys at Execuhitch SA for doing everything they could in getting it to me in time for my vacation, too bad the Aussie customs were difficult to deal with and it didn't get cleared in time. I know it's Xmas but 10 days isn't good enough.
Anyway ill have a go at the install tomorrow, just a little nervous at the rear bumper removal. At least I've got all day to do it. Maybe my boat will get a swim this weekend.

This is exactly what I've been looking for for my 2013 X5M!

Are you installing yourself, or at a stealership? If so, what's the dealer looking to charge you for install / coding?

Best,
-Alistair

I am going to order mine as well. The company sent me the installation paperwork with pictures and prices. My BMW dealer in Colorado Springs will code the vehicle for $120 (that is with the OEM wiring harness). I intend on doing the labor work myself.

I installed it myself yesturday and is perfect.
It took 3hrs and the only trouble I had was removing the plastic rivets and the bumper reflectors. I ordered the OEM harness which was out of stock so I was supplied the suppliers harness which doesn't need any programming and was plug and play. I am still getting the OEM when they have stock. At least I have experience in the bumper removal now.
