Contacted Kevin Bird offering my car (E61 535d) for measurement, though for personal reasons unlikely to be able to offer it for a real fit test. Will keep everybody posted!

Who need a whole differential ?
I will buy ring and pinion for $500-1000 and swap the originale 2.93 .
A little over ?1000 with install included .
An another 1 thousand for LSD and no cost for install because with the same amount of money you can install both ratio and LSD .
?2000 is less than $5000 .

Be smart!

What rule ?
You don't need to make your gears shorter : the 535d has steptronic transmission andvery short gears, as you know : 50-90-130-190-x-y or something similar .

For LSD imho it's the same : open the differential and add the Quaife .
