Are you the original owner? If not who knows what the history of the car is and what's been replaced. You can tell its HID just by turning your headlights on. If it flashes when you turn on and has a slight blue hue to it before becoming full bright, those are HIDs. If it turns on and has a yellow tint and no flash, its halogen.

They definitely look like halogen lit up. But the stamp threw me off...
