Being a newbie (who now has Iceblue8's first S8 mentioned at the start of this thread back in 2010!) I have been trying to get to grips with this b-xenon thing. I do have the bi-xenon unit (as shown earlier) and the xenon lamp does move when switching from dip to main. The problem initially confusing me was that there is a main beam halogen supplementary light which comes on too at high beam. (I guess I thought that the bi-xenons did away with halogen altogether.)

This does appear quite yellow compared with the xenon so i wondering whether that halogen lamp could be upgraded to a better (halogen) lamp without disturbing the system? At present it is a Osram 63210 12v 55w H7U.
