HID Headlights
I've seen pictures of MINIs (with HID) with just the circle of small lights around the low beam lit up. Any "how to" on achieving this? Thanks.

i would imagine those are aftermarket head lights, otherwise you can joey mod them, add the led rings and wire them in

Mine are aftermarket Xenons with the halos around the brights when the driving lights are on. THe other bulb is an additional turn signal. Bought from ebay years ago.

And there are also halos that replace the park light, but I think they have been out of production for a while and are very hard to find.

Are you talking about headlamp with "angel eyes"?
Those are aftermarket headlamp and the angel eyes are built in.
Mine is made in Taiwan. Love it so much.
