Do I have adaptive headlights?
Hey all, I'm replacing the full headlights in my 2003 330i ZHP with OE equipment:
63127165779
63127165780
I got the numbers from realoem and the headlights themselves. I also plan to replace the wiring harnesses.
There are two part numbers for the wiring harness; one for cars with adaptive lighting, and one for cars without adaptive lighting.
How can I tell if my car has adaptive lighting from the VIN or the OE headlight numbers above? I've literally never driven it at night, and now the car is sitting at the airport for two weeks while on travel.
Any direction is most appreciated.

I converted my touring from halogens to Bi-Xenons. All I had to do is swap the headlights in and finish the shutter wiring from the outside of the assembly to the LCM. I didn't bother with the leveling because it's not worth the effort.

I know how it’s wired, I have probably 7-8 sets of headlights in my garage, modified and what not. To do halogens- > xenons OE like probably easier is replacing the whole headlight wiring. Anyway, it’s all esthetics and everyone would do to their tolerances of “good enough” [emoji23]
Besides, if one goes to spend that kind of money on new headlights I would wire leveling at any costs just to have a fully functioning xenons.
