Yeah, the highbeam halogen part of the Mach headlights is probably less bright than the Xenon lowbeam.. They need to work together to get a really bright highbeam.
I havent gotten around to doing the jumper wire to mine, but I rarely ever drive outside of the city so I just havent bothered. If you do a lot of highway driving with your brights on, make sure you do this.
I'm not sure what the deal with the european headlights are, I'm not sure if the european cars are designed to have both bulbs light up in the "bright" mode.. you might want to ask a european how their car came stock. The mod will still work either way, but they might not have been intended to both be used during highbeam mode.
