I'd like to get conformation if anyone knows, but I believe the wiring harness needed to do xenon and it's features require the premium package for all the adaptive and leveling work but this is a guess.

I've been searching for hours and hours looking for a good post-purchase way to do xenon lights on an x1 or 3 series and basically there is no good way to do them. I'd pay $2k for an aftermarket that did leveling, (adaptive would be nice but not mandatory for me) and there isn't a way. There are $300 kits for the 3 series but again, they don't self level. Self leveling requires sensors throughout the car from what I've read so it's much more than just replacing the entire headlight assembly.
