How to check if car has lighting package?

For a 08-09 C63, how can I tell if it has the lighting package during the day? Do the halogens look very different than the xenons?

The '09 P02 Premium Pkg w/xenons also includes a headlight washing system which makes it easy to tell.

Is there any easy way to tell if the car has an LSD if it doesn't have the rest of the P30/31 package, and without going out and doing a donut?

Invoice of an aftermarket LSD install or manufacturer window sticker. You can also turn the steering wheel and mash the throttle, it doesn't have a lsd if only 1 side is smoking up.

Not 100% sure about this but look underneath for an extra finned differential cooler that is bolted to the diff housing...my P30 car had it.
