HID headlamps designed, engineered, manufactured, and certified or type-approved as HID headlamps are legal everywhere. "HID kits" and "projector retrofits", where HID bulbs are installed in headlamps not originally designed to accept them, are unsafe and illegal everywhere.

How do you change your regular lights to hid lights?
There are two ways to do this:Replace the entire light unit with a HID light unit compatible with the car, if one is available.Use an aftermarket HID conversion that fits standard bulb sockets, and adds HID bulbs and a ballast unit.HID bulbs require a ballast unit to generate the high voltages required, so are not a direct replacement. In most HID kits, the power can be taken from the existing lighting power supply, so the lights operate as normal.HID conversion kits are not road legal in some countries.
