yes. HID=Xenon

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

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.

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