Frosty Xenons for C32

Do you have to get a speacial headlight to activate Xenon? Or can you just go to the dealer and ask them to do the Xenon present mod?

Dealership can do it while plugged into the Star machine. Quick and easy.

If you have halogens on your stock ride, which you said you did, then you DO still need either the "frosty" xenons or clear bi-x to have the HID headlights. To make the HID headlights work properly on your car, you need to have the dealership change the preset from the regular halogen setting to the HID/xenon. Clear as mud?lol You're not an idiot, you needed the lights to do what you're trying to do.
