Are this xenon headlights?

 

yes. HID=Xenon

I'd post an OEM part number, but realoem doesn't have an assembly listed, only parts.

 

bump

 

Since you did a bump, your thread popped up, sorry but you stated that "HID=Xenon" That is not correct.Both xenon and halogen light bulbs are kinds of incandescent lights. They have a thin tungsten filament within their glass envelope, and when electricity flows through it, it heats up until the filament glows white hot and produces light.

HID High-intensity discharge lamps (HID lamps) are a type of electrical gas-discharge lamp which produces light by means of an electric arc between tungsten electrodes housed inside a translucent or transparent fused quartz or fused alumina arc tube.

 

Thanks for clarifying the butter. I understand the difference, but for the sake of the sale, and as most people understand this, I was merely correlating the two.
Please forgive me for being so careless.
Nonetheless, these are the OEM option headlights.

 

My factory spec HID headlamps for my pre-facelift R53 say "XENON" in the housing so the argument should be made to BMW/MINI not John.

Bump

 

Not arguing. and they are Xenon HID, Xenon is the gas that is used to ignite the arc.

 

Do you still have the headlights for sale

 

Yes. I still have them.
