It is fairly simple:
Assumption: BMW is not going to have two different wiring harnesses for the same car.
You actually have:
1) the fog light units in the tail light units
2) the indicator light is in the dash including the bulb
All you need to do is:
1) purchase a fog/parking light switch with the rear fog as well as the front fogs on it.
2) remove your tailight units.
3) notice that the fog light back is completely sealed in plastic
4) Make a template of a hole for a builb holder from one of the the other lights.
5) transfer that to the plastic of the fog light units
6) use a drill press and drill out the round section.
7) use a square file to make the two tab openings.
8) purchase 2 bulb holders and bulbs
9) connect the wiring that is already in place.
10) you might need to obtain 2 connectors male/female as the pins might not be in place.
11) insert bulbs and holders in fog lamp
12) flip on the rear fog light switch
13) be happy to note that the fog lights light up and the indicator on the instrument panal also lights.
14) Great to get rid of tail-gaters and also helps in dense fog as they were designed to do.

Help, are the rear fog lights standard even though the lens is included in the rear light package, are the fog light bulbs?
