What are the lampy looking bulbs surrounded by the outer "angel eyes"? Do they light up? If so, how? If not, what's their purpose? Ive seen these lit on a 3 series (unless it was a dream I mistook for reality, which has been happening more and more lately) but I can't get them to light up in my 1er. If they're not supposed to light, that would explain why.
Angel Eyes are the lighted rings that surround all four of your bulbs.

The inner bulbs are your Cornering Lights, they only come on when your light switch is set to Auto mode and you turn the steering wheel. If you turn your steering wheel to the left, your left Cornering Light will light up the area to your left.

The outer bulb is your Bi-Xenon Headlights, both High and Low Beams are combined into this one bulb.
