Question Is High stop light included in clear rear light kit

I've just had the Clear rear lenses fitted on my S by my BMW dealer but the high stop light in the spoiler is still red. Is this supposed to be included in the kit or is this extra?
I've already had problems with this as they are wanting to charge me an extra $400 (original quote was $540) for fitting the lenses and the extra red reflectors required in NZ.

Unfortunately the dealer fitted them before telling me about the extra costs. When I ordered the car last December they had given me a price of $549, I assumed this included fitting as it was included in the final price of the car.
The dealer made a mistake in my order and delivered my MINI to me in June without the clear lenses so I wasn't charged for them at the time. I have had to wait 8 weeks for them to get them in from Germany.
I probably wouldn't have fitted them myself as I don't think I could bring myself to cut holes in the bumper for the reflectors, but if I had known that it was going to be almost twice the price I probably wouldn't have gone for them.
