You can fit HID Xenon instead of the factory Halogens in the Hi-Beam spot as well. I have done that, but it's a trade off. You may get some errors and some odd flashing (strobe effect) during startup.
I have ordered new parts... new Xenon kits for High and Fogs, relay kit to use on the Highs, error cancelling plugs just in case.
So, now I have factory Bi-Xenon + Xenon high beam + Xenon fog lights. I have Quad Xenon

Hey, appreciate the education.
I'll have to actually check to see how mine operate. Still wish I had brighter fogs though. Never noticed the difference in the low-high beams and flash! 
That's what's so great about this forum, you can always get mixed up in what you have and what's available. Then have someone explain it all to you in simple terms 
Thanks!

NP man, I hope you have Bi-Xenon. It's a good thing to have. You can then make the mod and have the Bi-Xenon work on flashing as well so you can flash the hell out of those pesky Audis and Mercs standing in the way...

Thanks for the order btw!
I know Eugene134 has converted his whole car that he can have the flash high beams on as well as the bixenons high beam on at the same time. Not sure how he did it.

Yup, flashing with Halogen + Bi-Xenon high requires a little modification on the wires going into the headlight. Joining some wires. I will take some pics of my wires with the mod done and post them.
