Aftermarket HID kits are illegal.

More helpfully (instead of just being an internet douchebag), if the EP3 civic ever had HID lights as standard, they will be Euro type approved and thus legal to use (if my understanding of the law is correct).

They appear to be about £250 off eBay (obvious questionalble legality notwithstanding), my understanding is they're relatively easy to fit (straight swap, just a matter of siting the ballasts for the self levelling system). It is my understanding that because they self level, they require minimal calibration, so you should be able to do it yourself.

Hope this is a bit more helpful than my initial internet-warrior post, hopefully someone with direct experience will be along shortly
