For a while I had an Xenon headlight assembly on one side, without the ABL function (the "look around the corner" function) available. It worked, but I got an indicator lamp lit all the time, to tell it wasn't working.
But I do have Xenon with ABL normally. The reason for this temporary fix was that my original headlamp was destroyed.
There's quite a difference in how useful the Xenon light is when you add ABL to the equation. I don't understand why you don't care about that - I'd say it's a valuable additional feature.
I've never had to try to change the config of any car - I bought mine with the equipment I sought after, but I've understood that you need to crack some PIN code in the car to do it.
