UPDATE - SOLUTION:
Replaced the rear tail light assembly.
Took me (no experience) 10 minutes.
Tools needed: 10mm socket.
1) Purchase rear tail light assembly from San Francisco BMW - Price $238.93 plus $17.66 shipping. Received in one week and it's genuine OEM BMW part.
2) Remove rear tail light assembly - Open trunk, from outside open 2 little doors on tail light assembly. Use 10mm socket and remove nuts. Use hand at top and pull while using hand on side to slide out old assembly.
3) On M2C just pull out the one wire connector while pushing on lock piece on side of connector.
4) Make sure that the WHITE plug piece in the middle of the wire is reinserted into the bottom of the assembly to hold wires in.
5) Put new assembly in same way came out noting that there is a male piece on end that has to go in first.
6) Make sure the top rain edge is INSIDE the metal part of the trunk when sliding in.
7)This all took me less than 10 minutes.
