The car will obviously throw a bulb out error since the HIDs consume a fraction of the power.
Furthermore, when you turn on the headlights, the voltage going to that bulb changes, which will probably (not sure) cause the HID kit to flicker and fail prematurely.
The only way to do this is to put a resistor on that circuit (or leave the bulb dangling... hahaha) to "trick" the car into thinking there is a normal bulb there... then running a relay with power directly from the battery and the trigger from that circuitry... and hope that the decreased voltage still triggers your relay, which it probably will.
It's a bit hairy. Just wait a few months. A company in Taiwan has a RIDICULOUSLY bright solution coming out, but they won't let anyone buy it (or even look at it uninstalled) until all their patents clear. Should be another month or two.
Hope this helps!

which company is that? are they out?
