Have you looked at the tech article (link at the top of the page)? That explains what you need to do... 
As for whether they're legal, I'm not 100% sure! The original Hella ones are, & my diy versions have gone through the MOT without a problem, so I can't see why they wouldn't be. I think some European countries have a rule that you're not allowed to tamper with lights at all, but I'm not aware of anything like that here...

I was thinking about making them smoked hellas using that article but it seemed so confusing!
have you got any pictures of it with the lights on?
