Some have added DRLs under the xenons (not in the fogs, like RR). I forget who has. Didn't like them at first, but they're growing on me.

The GTI isn't just a machine. It's very much a living, breathing thing.

On the halogen units it just keeps the headlight on all the time.  Xenon unit could be different as side-lights are different bulbs - like shown in your pic.

Those are the sidelights on the xenons, you can see them on on my car in this pic:


The indicator is also housed in the same area and flashes orange (distinct from yellow).
The dude in the first pic has just got xenon colourmatch sidelights.
