I don't have the answer for OP, but just want to highlight that the links from Post #2 and #3 showing the LED tail lights, are not the same as the one from the OP (non-LED).
I got the exact same LED version and it works without any issue.

Looks like the LED replacements will resolve the factory BMW tail light shortcomings, and look better as well...

I fitted some and they had the wrong bulbs fitted in them. If the front indicator is flashing fast then the rear bulb is not connected/fitted and mine had 22w indicator bulbs in the 5w sidelight sockets.
Check the bulbs. |

Yes, this is the correct bulb unless the holder is using the offset pin type as used in some BMW's. Voltage and wattage are correct.
Also consider that Euro cars MUST have at least one functional rear foglamp operational on the drivers side, (which could be either side as UK is RHD and the rest are LHD). Some have a foglamp both sides. Also many cars using just one foglamp use the opposite side as a white reverse lamp. It should be very easy to sort the wiring out for a competant vehicle electrician.
