P2 Headlights

What the hell does this globe projector do? Its always on but never does anything, and i cant even figure out how to change to bulb that is inside it?
I was thinking that it might be a differentiating standard, a way to recognize between the two headlight packages maybe? or might just be side lights but surely they wouldn't use projectors for sidelights? Im just so confused, I have searched around on the internet to try find out what it does but no avail? maybe one of you guys might know,

Thanks

I thought that was the high beam. But I don't have the pre-facelift model so can't tell for sure.

These headlights use the shutter system for highbeam projection so ita projected from the left globe, however those little ones, They're always on at a low level, enough to notice they're on but not enough to make any difference to visibility.. Any other ideas? Thanks

These lights also come on like "Follow Me Home" function when you park outside and it is dark enough for auto lights to turn on .

So im guessing they're just like side lights, Always on at a low level with no real purpose, was hoping they'd be some sort of special activated high beam or fog light system haha, Thanks for the responses, Appreciate it
