I don't think US spec lights have rear fogs built in which as least in the past we could get activated bec they were physically there, that is no more. What a bummer!
I got the lights in and the EU switch and the car says it isn't available. Making me think it may just be a programming/coding issue. The rear fogs are next to the reverse light on the EU tails lights, and I haven't looked at my US lights to see if they are in there.
I tried to mess around with the coding with Bimmercode on a 2020 M340i but a lot of modules, all except the headunit and alarm, was not recognized.

So it going to take some time before the coders and software develops that's compatible with the new ECUs in the G series.

Even if the US-spec tails is different than the Euro/ROW, you can repin the harness to match each appropriate light. Coding is needed though to move around the mapping output.
