Is there aTrailer Hitch for a 2007 BMW 328xi Sedan and Options for Carrying a Bike

Question:

Will this hitch fit my 2007 BMW 328xi sedan? I will use it predominately for a bike rack. I may decide to tow a trailer on rare occasion in which case I would only need the brake light wiring harness? Assuming I get the ball at the same time. Is there a package or advantage to getting the ball etc at the same time? Thanks

Expert Reply:

There are currently no hitches available for the sedan model 2007 BMW 328xi. What you can do is add a roof rack. You will need 3 items for a roof rack. First, Thule Podium Roof Mounted Foot Pack for Square Load Bars, # TH460. Next, Thule Fit Kit for Podium Style Foot Pack, # THKIT3028. Finally, the load bars, # THLB50. I have included some videos showing installation on a similar vehicle below. You could then add Thule Sidearm Roof Mounted Bike Rack - Wheel Hook, # TH594, to carry a bike. I have included the instructions to this product below.

You could also use a rear mounted trunk rack like the Thule Passage 2 Bike Carrier Trunk Mounted Bike Rack, # TH910. There are some specific instructions that need to be followed with this rack and your vehicle. Place top clips in the gap at the front edge of the top of the trunk, hatch, or door. Place lower clips in the bottom edge of trunk or hatch. The lower arm of carrier should be positioned on upper tier of the bumper. And it will need to be set at setting 7. I have included the instructions for this rack below.
