same with your set up we will get it running.. lol.. i wasn't planning on doing the rear fogs now, maybe sometime later, but i guess, i will try to dedicate one of the weekend to this project... Since i have the trailer module, I should be able to test the output of the LCM for the fog lights and the output of the trailer module for the fog lights, to see if the trailer module is needed for the set up...
of course, meanwhile, you can continue your troubleshooting efforts...
and there are definetely lines in the programming about the rear fogs, the cold/hot monitoring, the cold/hot reporting, the switch with the rear fogs, the presense of the rear fogs... i just don't remember the values...

Oh I'm sure we will get it running, I actually found this post on E46 section of Bimmerforums:
Activating rear fog lights?
I'm sure in lieu of using the trailer module to pick up a fog light signal at pin 3, that we will have to activate the signal with the way I have it wired at pin 10 and 12.
I PM'ed a member who is about 30 mins away from me as well as Okee (Triple O Coding) if they could look up any files related to NSL in the LCM programming, so we could translate the lines and perhaps get it to work the way I have it wired now.
It's not a huge deal if it doesn't work for the time being, I'd really like to be able to tell other members that if you don't have the trailer wiring you just need the European switch, some wires and a programming change to activate these rear fog lights.
