Do the European versions of the 5 series come with rear fog lights?

Yes, it is a Legal requirement.

Only thing I cannot say is whether they have one or two.

I wonder if one in the USA can simply order the euro switch and get the rear fogs like I did in my 335. Anyone know?

BMW's have always had two fog lights AFAIK... and yes its European law

I did that in my 335 but I didn't order a switch, I just took apart the one that came in the car and "fixed" it. Not sure if that's doable in the F10.

I asked my SA that and he seemed thoroughly perplexed that the E9/2s had that easter egg in them. While there is no "blank" button like with the 3 series, I wonder if there is the module behind it? If not that, at the very least we should be able to swap out the entire cluster with the euro switch.

With 400HP on tap stock, the euro switch and dumping the amber side markers are the only mods I plan to do to the car when it arrives....maybe...
