As I work for a tier 1 supplier to BMW Spartanburg Plant, there is always a "Pipeline" of parts to meet demands. Depending on where a particular part is manufactured will dictate how many parts are in said pipeline. I am not sure when the HK was removed from option lists but their system knows "what is on the water" so to speak and where every part in each vehicle is. If an order was accepted to have HK in it most likely it will be there. there was most likely a rather large buffer of HK systems in hand to cover any order even well after it was removed from option listing.
IMO
