All info is here: http://www.dft.gov.uk/pgr/roadsafety/drs/hidheadlamps

I had them on my old ibiza for ages, the only issue is your get a really bad beam pattern as it projects the light all over the place so you would need to put your old bulbs in for MOT. I never got pulled for them though, even though they are quite blatantly not supposed to be fitted.
