I tried realoem but they only have one part number listed and googling for pics of it showed the standard screw-adjustable type.

Understanding realoem.com:
The reason realoem.com & bmwfans.info only have 1 part nbr is...that part nbr superceded all the other (older) part nbrs that were previously used. When you run into multiple or seemingly 1 part nbr...if you click on that nbr for more details...those site's will list all the bmw models that can use that nbr & why...in this case...part nbrs
51 24 7 171 557/558 (left/right) are prominently listed as superceded part nbrs that fit retrospectively.
Click this link to see what I mean...this is the info realoem.com gives when you click on the one for the right side (part # 51247171558):
RealOEM.com - Part Search
Do note that there's 2 distinct stoppers...one for the left side & one for the right...only those 2 stoppers are used now (for each side) regardless of model year/build date.
Hope this clarifies the 1 part nbr.
