Just bought a new to me 2013 X3

Mineral Silver with Havana Leather interior
- All optioned out except for "LED Lighting Package"

That brings me to my question, is it possible to retrofit the door panel to fit the LED door puddle lights package offered by BMW. As far as I am aware, the wiring harness is available, the actual hole is unavailable.

Just wondering what my options are for adding the lights package:

1) There is a rough-in, so do I just cut out the opening?

2) Do I replace the plastic section with an equivalent of the one with the opening?

Does anyone know what I am referring too?

Great looking! Let me know if you decide to retrofit the puddle lights, I still have a few OEM new units leftover from my X5///M when I took out the garbage LED ones that were from the previous owner...
