Default Factory Springs Interchange for 08 535xi

Hello
I bought a 08 535xi with H&R 29146 Sport Springs and have been looking for used/take off springs from other 535xi's. Most yards ask the build date and mines is 10/07 does the build date matter a lot or can I use springs from other years (or months)? Or can I use springs from other 5 series X drives? I am finding it hard to find a match for my build date and don't know if there were subtle updates or changes or are the other springs incompatible.
Thanks

Our streets are terrible with potholes. Are you looking to swap?
