Hey I'm new to the forum and I need help with installing my LCI headlight onto my 2006 BMW 530I, this car was built on March 2005. I am having problems with a diagram for Bixenon adaptive headlights.

LCI Retrofit installation help!-untitled.jpg
On this diagram it said to have 4 wires (on the top-right of the picture, one with the 4 pins. X10608) but on my car only has 3 wires and pin number 4 on my car does not have a wire on it. Does anyone one this forum know what that wire is for and since my car only has 3 pins how do i get it to 4 pins like the diagram?

Thanks!
Note: I will upgrade my Headlights and taillights to LCI and I will change my LCM (light control module)

For adaptive headlights:

Cars with SA 524 (AHL) only.
On the left headlight, disconnect X13420, 8-pin, SW, and
X10608, 4-pin, SW, from the standard wiring harness.
Fit seals N to P and socket contacts Q and R onto the cable
ends and connect to socket casing S as follows:
? GR/GN to pin 1
? BR to pin 2
? GE/GN to pin 3
? BR to pin 4
? BL to pin 5
? WS/GN to pin 6
? GE/SW to pin 7
? Pin 8 unassigned
? SW/GN to pin 9
? SW/BL in pin 10
? BR to pin 11
? BL/GN to pin 12

I don't understand. The color code you gave me doesn't match with the ones in the diagram. which one is right? and what does AHL mean?
