    was reading a post on mini2 and it got me thinking.

    right enough when I was at the dealers checking out the new Mini I never noticed the halogen bulb for when flashing the lights as you can't flash xenon bulbs.

    anyone know where it is.

    Either that or you have to spec spot lamps to be able to flash someone - you know what Mini are like for charging for options

    more info here fi....

    looks like one unit does the lot, thereby only 1 beam of light (therefore bi-xenon, one unit doing 2 jobs..)
