Hi Mr. Alpina!

I'm afraid you have to replace the whole headlight assembly with the Euro version which was what I did for my previous '04 X5. The Euro lights have clear turn signals but will light up amber. They are authentic BMW lights and not some cheapo copycats. I got them from an Ebay seller (EuroRev) a few years back and I'm not sure they still cary these lights any more.

PS: Still waiting patiently for pics of your new ride. But no pressures and take your time.
