In /low mode, the plate allows only a shorter throw for the light beam, while in /high mode, the plate allows a longer throw (ie further away) for the light beam, thus illuminating a longer distance away.On LCI models, the inner projector is a dummy light.Not so relevant to us here, but I remember reading in US E90 forums, about their DRLs, and I get the impression that for US pre-LCI models, their DRLs use the halogen inner reflector lights (at low power). Anyone else get the same impression?</blockquote>
