Here are two ways of wiring HID's in the Civic. Hope this helps.

Any pros/cons of doing it one way or another?

PNP
Pro: Easy
Con: My engine fan comes on makes my HID's flicker at startup (sometimes).

Relay
Pro: HID's are completely isolated from the factory lighting circuit.
Con: Extra wiring time. Relay Harness may be extra $$

why just one big relay?
why not 2 separate relays? one for each side.

Those pics are worthless. This is the correct PIC if you want to make or use a harness

^^^^that's what my harness looked like....except each had it's own relay.

Yea, you can use one or two relays. Its good to do two just in case one dies, then you have one headlight working. I only have one
