You want to try driving at night in heavy fog, the light movement is nothing less than hypnotic!

Having checked the specs the cornering lamps are included as long as you have xenons... in the UK, you have Xenons as long as you have an SE or above. The lowly S still gets halogens as standard

Seems you do not need the adaptives to get the cornering lamps

Just the same here in Italy.

Well, so they must be cornering lights, according to what most of you say.
Whee is this lamp located, though?
Just curious to see it.

The car is currently stored in the garage and I will use it next weekend, so I Will have the chance to find this only after that.
Maybe I will try in front of a huge mirrir, trying to to turn just into it...

ciao Gianluca,

non credo tu abbia i fari adattivi,peraltro non previsti sul sei cilindri.
si tratta semplicemente di una lanpada ,non xenon che si attiva a tempo
quando inserisci l'indicatore di direzione sotto i 40 km/h, superati
i quali la centalina esclude che tu stia svoltando ma che invece stai sorpassando
pertanto non accende niente.

cia'

Grazie Valerio, infatti è come pensavo .. figuriamoci se in Italia ti vendono un adattativo e non te lo fanno pagare per oro ..
Magari può succedere il contrario...

They are located right next to your side marker lights, mate

Aye Ive got them and that was the question I asked salesman. But he said there wasnt xenons on the car. Im confused now as I KNOW Ive got cornering lights but dont know if Ive the adaptive xenons, standard xenons or halogens............

What model is your RRS? If you have Xenons (you'll easily be able to tell due to the crisp blue tinge of the lights), then you have cornering lamps. My earlier post was misleading - they don't only come with the adaptive lights, you get them as long as you have Xenons (which you will do if you have an SE or above).

Clear?

Depends on MY though doesn't it? I am sure my 55 HSE did not have cornering lights

Ok gents, I got it.
Basically there are two additional halogen lights in the headlights which automatically turn on when you have lights on, the indicator on, and you are turning.

This is the bulb I am referring to.



Do you all have them?

Or is it just an HSE feature?

Thats the same light units that I have but I cant seem to ever see the cornering lights come on at all!! Current, M135i in Estoril Blue with more extras than the cast of Ben Hur.

If anyone is still confused about what type of headlamps are fitted. i.e - Xenons or halogens. Lift the bonnet and have a look. On top of the headlamp unit there should be a label which will say if the light is Xenon or Halogen. Early models even have a warning label fitted because of the high voltage generated by the Xenon units.
