In my new (to me) 2003 9-3 Sport Sedan I have the Bi-Xenon headlights, which are quite a nice thing as my night vision becomes worse with advancing age. I noticed that there is a conventional high beam headlight bulb in the the headlight bucket, but this bulb never comes on. When I actuate the high-beam the pattern of the HIDs change as the cut-off mask inside moves, but the halogen bulbs do not illuminate. Can anyone else with a SS and BiXenons confirm that these lamps are in fact supposed to light? I'll be dropping it at the deals next week for them to fix all the little things that I have found that are wrong with the car (under warranty) and I just want to know if I should add this to the list. TIA, -- -Fred W
