Its a totally different bulb to the e39. I suggest you get yourself canbus ready W5W SMT white LEDs

The New bulb is not going to fit at all, what you need to do is remove the bulb you have and check if it is indeed a 501 (W5W) or even a 503H which is a 10W halogen capless bulb.

Then you need to get an LED canbus ready version to fit the same fitting.

it is not possible to get the ultrabright white LEDS as seen on 2013 models unless you have a car that will accept that fitting itself, so sadly you will be able to get a similar look and colour, but nowhere as bright.
