TerminatorX5 is on a distinguished road
here are original, OE BMW fog lights, one came off the 4.6iS, that is the longer one, and the other one is off 4.8iS. If you notice, the plastic tab on both lights is at the same absolute location (I tried to get the screwdriver to point to the tab, it kept rolling). So, this would allow them to be interchangeable, plus the electrical connector needs to be replaced.

The second picture shows the projector installed on the left, driver's side and the free-form still on the right side. The picture does not do the justice but the top cut-off line is more pronounced on the projector light and a bit blurry on the free-form.

The right side is still not installed as the airchannel is still on the way. I got this time deeper, and tried to see how much it can wiggle... It seems that there might be some wiggling room, I just need to renew my membership in the "BUSTED KNUCKLES SOCIETY", and get down dirty...
