When you headlamps are in the "off" position, the halogens lamps are used for the "flash-to-pass" feature. On european models, they are used in combination with the hi-beam. You can wire them to come on with the hi-beams quite simply. There are directions on the forum.

I actually found the instructions on the benzworld.org site (I get confused now and then). Here's the link http://benzworld.org/publications/pub.asp?id=67 Good luck with it!
