Roger at 928s R US, has new lenses. A new Fog light assembly, is almost cost prohibitive, they're crazy expensive, if you can find a set.

Euro lights are different and the opposite way around to USA/CAN lens.
Not sure my lens will work on a ROW car.

True - it won't work on ROW the lenses are switched in location between Fog & Aux driving lights, and you cannot use the lenses upside down.

It will, you just swap the bulb positions...one may need extended a few inches.

I had to do this fitting French Yellow fog/driving lights to my car. No problems.

I wouldnt put a lens in upside down, however..

The adjusters are not the same between the 2 locations - and you'd ideally need to swap the reflectors (fog & aux high beams are very different patterns/cut-off. Bulb shield on fogs but not on Aux high beams.

I have swapped mine (whole fittings) to ROW. Though you could swap just the functions - it would be a real compromise: for high beam you'd have a cut-off and only up/down aiming and fog function would have no shield...

If you are saying it was possible to swap the reflector positions (not tried that...) then its primarily an aiming issue for the high beam (there will be no lateral adjustment) - possibly acceptable.

But - if you changed only one side it would make the car look quite odd.

Ok...didnt think of those. I installed ENTIRE euro assemblies, and only had to lengthen one harness.

Good point.
