Hi 'Elite X5' !

The LED License Plate Bulps in my X5 are the same, that you will find it also on the new BMW 3 Series. But, you're right: There are a error sign in the display, each time, when you start the engine - but, it's just for a few seconds ! You can handle it, when you put a 'resistance' between it. Try it out...

True true, good question, Im sure the Japanese sellers can communicate with you Dubai boys, and score a good deal

I'd just type in the part name in google, and see if any Western (english) sellers come up - go to the ebay's (us, uk, hongkong english etc) / yahoo's even some auto shops in the States might have it - other than that I suppose find a friend or friend of friend, give em a gift and ask em to transalte and hook up the import deal.... shouldnt be too much stress - its just some lights not a fancy cool white aero kit (With black accents)
