I went by the dealer and picked up some OEM wiring harnesses from a 2002 X5. Now I just have to cut off the original plugs and attach the new ones and everything should work out.

P/N's are:
Universal socket housing uncoded 61 13 8 373 332
in conjunction with --BUSHING CONTACT 61 13 0 007 256

these part numbers are for the ellipsoid/projector foglights, you will need to crimp them onto the car wiring - cut off the original plug and splice in these...

you will need 2 0f the 332 part and 4 of the 256 part

thanks Term X. hugely appreciate it.
I've ordered a few sets of depo brand projectors and tried a few different hid bulbs in them and never do I get anything that resembles a useful beam/cut off, so i'm just gonna use 55w h3 bulbs, like factory came with.
too bad no hid kits ive installed worked. seems the bulbs are too long for housing and therefore do not illuminate correctly behind the projector and cut offs are so ugly its worse than you can imagine.
oh well. projector halogens are still very good. maybe more than the hid's I currently have in my reflector fogs currently.

edit: shoot, so sorry to waste your time, I just noticed the p/n's were in post 12. I must have been so sleepy last night when reading this thread and missed it, or just didn't load cause my laptop was acting up. My bad.

no biggy deal - we all have senior moments... lol...

just in case if you ever decide to go back to free-form halogen foglights, the part numbers for the sockets:
61136907388 - you will need 2 of these
and the pins are
61130007272 - you will need 4 of these
