Funny you should mention that.

Yes, it was figured out (sort of)

No, I haven't done the installation yet. Since the car is now due for it's first Belgian inspection, it's on my list of things to do as well.

Long story short - The local BMW dealer (in Belgium) had my X5 torn apart... sitting right next to a European X5... also torn apart.

The wiring harness that exists on European X5s for the rear fog lights??? The wiring harness doesn't even EXIST on a US Spec X5.

So...... the solution is:

OEM rear (European) foglights..... plus an aftermarket relay/switch to operate them.

Or.... one of those stupid little lights that hang off the rear bumper... which I won't do.
