X3 Hitch wiring module
 

I just picked up a 2007 X3. It has a hitch, but no wiring. I talked to the BMW dealer here in Ottawa, Canada and they sell the complete hitch assembly with wiring. I just need the wiring module and wiring. The part number I have is 71600303881, but he says that they cannot get it separately. Is this part available from US BMW dealer or some other source?

You could try ECS Tuning. They list the module for the X5, and may be able to get it if you talk to them. They are a board sponsor.

On the X5 it is just under $200. It was available when I put a hitch on my X5, but on my X3 I bought it together with the OEM hitch for around $400 CDN.

Edit: I checked the ECS site, and if you search on the part number you have they have it, and it looks just like what I just installed on my 2007 X3.
