Xenon upgrade without retrofit kit

Hi,
Has anyone had experience getting the OEM Xenon headlights to work in place of the stock halogens? The retrofit kit is no longer available.
Here is a thread of someone getting it to work with the R56 but I'm not sure if the wiring is identical.

Modifications only to the headlamp https://www.northamericanmotoring.co...to-finish.html
Mix of wiring change on headlamp and harness https://www.northamericanmotoring.co...t-attempt.html

Thanks!

Looks like, after a short search, you found your answer in the Modifications / Electrical section....

Thanks. I had the link to start but have not had anyone confirm that the same wiring modifications on the R56 work on the R60? Can you confirm they work on a 2015 Countryman S?
