Re: Bixenon
The yellow cables from the adapters will be for the high beam shutters. They go to pin 48 and 49 on the gold CECM (BCM) connector.
As you are probably aware you should also have the AFS HID leveller installed for them to be legal in the UK and pass an MOT - however not all MOT test centres check for it (or know how to check it). Having said that without the AFS module wired in you might find they are pointing in the wrong direction (too far down/up etc)

Yep, once you remove the connectors shroud you will be able to see the pin numbers (they are on the back side or the face, i can't remember)
