    No, you can not.

    the HID lights need to be configured in the Central Configuration of the BCM.

    Another problem may be the wiring. On halogen vehicles the additional wiring needed for HID lights is often missing. In this case the missing wiring will need to be added. HID headlights do also have an additional control module. This module controls the automatic height adjustment. HID lights do have different height adjustment motors from the halogen headlights. The manual electric height adjustment does not work in combination with HID lights.

    And second of all here on UK roads, you must have auto leveling and washers for them to be completely road legal. This doesn't account for insurance related issues you may encounter as well as retrofitting these lights can void your policy if not fitted correctly.
