Having found some issues with the BMW part and doing some research I have found that the Elise ball joint is a better fit see here

It is not perfect but very very close, the critical dimensions, taper angle and fit are the same, the fit in the arm is same, there are some dimensional differences but these are limited to mainly not critical dimensions that do not effect the fit.
