Xenon Headlights

I just recently got a 2003 Z4. It was advertised as having xenon headlights, however upon further research, such as upgrading to a brighter bulb, I found out that I don't have xenon but regular halogen H7 bulbs. The headlight cover says D2S H7, what gives? I wanted to get some blue HID replacements.

Does your Z4 has bi-xenon? one easy way to tell is if u flip to high beam, by pushing the stalk, the projector is actually the high beam also.

If you pull on the stalk, it flashes the other housing.

I don't know about bi-xenon but I pulled the BULB out of the housing and took it to an auto parts store, its a regular halogen H7 nothing about it is xenon.

Garage List
Price adjustment?

Bi-xenon headlights were a seperate option on the 2003 Z4 and not included in the Premium Package, Convenience Package, or Sport Package.
Sounds like you may have recourse to get a price adjustment from the seller as the bi-xenon headlight option ran about $700.
