Bi-Xenon lights for 129?

In the January 2006 issue of the Mercedes Enthusiast there is an article about the 129 SL73 AMG (gosh, I would love one of those beasts). Among other things, the owner reveals that he has fitted bi-xenon lights. Does anybody know about these? Are they a MB part? Or are they aftermarket? Are they any good? Or is it just a mistake in the article?

The SL73 is a rare bird. It has a V-12 with a total displacement of 7.3 liters. It was a very rare AMG offering. I think total prices was well above a fully loaded SL600 at the time. I have yet to see one anywhere but in magazines or on the net. Anyone want to sell one? Ill trade you any of the cars in my sig for it.

But, what is really cool is that it is the same engine used in the Pagani Zonda.
