Unhappy Projector53 installation

Dear all,
I bought the Projector53 for my OCT/2001 X5 3.0i

Projector53's cables
----------------------
white/white : angel eyes
white/black : H7 12V 55W bulbs for highbeam
yellow/black : H7 bulbs for low beam, it can be removed. because i replace it into D2S xenon.

in 2001 X5 owner's manuals
for low beam bulbs is "H7 bulb, 55 watts"
for high beam bulbs is "HB3 bulb, 60 watts"

question#1)
I have to buy H7 bulbs for high beam because the Proejctor53's H7 socket for high beam is not compatible with stock HB3 bulbs. am i right ?

question#2)
I hope my AE is ON when the side lamps is on. is it difficult ?
my X5 has two steps for low beam
step1) turn the rotary right then side lamps are ON.
step2) turn the rotary right more, then the low beam is ON.

stock high beam and low beams are not compatible, therefore, you need new bulbs. About the AEs, they dont turn on automatically, you have to run the wires and difficulty depends on how you want it to work (e.g. always on, on when fogs are only, etc. Check one of my threads here:
