Is there a difference in Bosch xenon where it may not be bi-xenon?

I don't think so.
I just checked eBay, and wow the prices are high due to low inventory, I guess I got lucky. But, for example, this is what you need to get, just find a left and right that are in good condition and includes ballast and bulbs.

Another option is to buy a a kit from The Retrofit Source or elsewhere that includes bi-xenon projectors. That's what I did because I'd rather have bi-xenon. I haven't installed it yet, I'll get to it soon.

I believe you need to remove the halogen reflector which is the burned part. If you have original headlamps as I do there is still no way to get rid of the amber part of the lens, so that's a negative.
