Considering Litronic Headlight Upgrade

Love my new 2002 Boxster S. Would love it more if it had Xenon’s. Does anyone have tips on procurement and installation of same?? The local dealer would like to separate me from about $1,800.00 of my money for a new set........sans labor.... Kinda pricy, but then again everything Porsche is kinda pricy......Online stores seem to sell "OEM" kits for $1,500.00.... still kinda pricy....I read Porsche technical bulletin that states that if you install the kit as a retrofit the headlights will not auto adjust. I had thre pleasure of driving a BMW M5 for a couple of years. It had auto adjusting Xenons. You could see them spring to life when you first turned on the headlamps at night. The beams would self adjust depending on how close you were to the car in front of you so as not to blast his\her rear view mirror. great feature. Will Boxsters do this even if the Litronics are installed at the factory or is Porsche referring to some other form of self adjustment?

Thanks for replies.
