Can someone with LCI Xenon headlights check something for me?

I'll be getting them installed tomorrow to replace pre-LCI xenons and wanted to get some coding done to them, just wondering if someone can take pics of the headlight in the following conditions:

1. light knob in "auto on/leveling" (farthest to left)

2. light knob at "off" position with DRL mode on

3. light knob at "off" position with DRL mode off

4. one click to the right "parking lights"

5. two clicks to the right "on" (farthest to right)

i just want to see what bulbs/LEDs are on/off at each of those settings.

Cool thanks. Are the low and high beams used with the same projector? With my current pre lci lights, a momentary high beam uses the inside bulb while constant high beam uses the low beam projector bulb (at a higher intensity?).

Yeah, it's the same. A shutter opens up and changes the beam pattern when you activate the high beams.

So the momentary AND constant high beams both use the same projector light?
