    You can inquire with the dealership itself if they can install xenon headlamps for you
    You will keep your warranty and resale value but it will be quite expensive

    You have to ask a BMW Technician about that or you can research in BMW forums like bimmerfest or bimmerpost

    Headlights vary depending on LHD or RHD

    Edit: A bit tricky though, try getting a quotation from a BMW Casa on upgraded HLs, record the part number, research part number in ebay :lalala:

    If you will install bi-xenons even it is oem it has to be coded because it was not originally installed on your SAV or else the computer will recognize it as failed headlight and will bug you all the time which is very annoying. If you will install non- oem aftermarket your bmw dealer will refuse to code it.

    Bro be very careful with race chips as easy as they say it is to use "plug n play" I've heard horror stories about the engine getting fkd up because of the race chip.... Though I also want to install one, I'm still researching about it's pros and cons.
