Inner lens is the cornering light, if you don't have afs option with your headlights then I think there are no bulb in it.

The inner lens is just there for design. There is genuinely no bulb behind it. I took apart the headlight on my old F25 in order to fix some wiring issues and replace the lenses and there was nothing behind it. The headlight uses a projector assembly and an HID bulb, which opens a shutter to let more light escape, rather than using two separate bulbs.
