I did not ship to Canada. Usually I use general delivery place in the first town behind the Canada/US border and pay only for US domestic delivery.

If you ever want to buy separately, or if in Canada and can't buy the kit, then you could ask the dealer all these part numbers and buy in Canada.

My dealer told me that this part is not available, not even as an accessory, in Canada. Maybe they did not dig deeper enough and could have do more, but their answer was firm "NO".

That's too bad. I was going to try this route to save on shipping from the U.S. I'll ask them though and see what they reply with.

It is definitely worth to try. Let us know how it went. GL

I've asked and found out that a Canadian BMW dealer does indeed sell part number 36110007376, the emergency wheel retrofit kit, at over $430:wow:. They said they don't have it in stock so have to order. If I'm buying I'm not buying from this dealer. What a price. Tischer sells this for $370 SHIPPED to Canada.

Were you able to install the spare kit yourselves or did you get the dealer to do it for you? The cost of labor must've almost matched the cost of the kit itself, if done at the dealer.

No need to pay dealer to install. If you get the complete kit, the installation is super easy.
