I changed mine to "Vision plus" last years autumn. The light is great but annoying to other cars at time because of the bounciness of a Xantia [:D] The light is about 50% further and brighter.
As far as I know about the Xenon, you will have to get some other headlight that can absorb the heat. Also, someone mentioned to me that the electrics are a bit different (not sure what though).
