I just got my hid kit from DDM and I wanna know where you guys mounted your ballasts for the hid's. I want them to look as clean and streamline as possible so if any of you have pics of where you mounted yours or detailed descriptions that would be nice. Also does the double sided tape they supply with the kit really hold the ballast securely in place? I feel like the weight of the ballast and the heat of the engine bay would make it so the tape didn't adhere like it should. Thanks for any input. I can't wait to get these installed next week!

i put mine on the fenders as well. ill go take a pic. as for the doubleside tape, clean the fender with alcohol before you stick it and it should stay quite a while.

When I still had mine, I sat the ballasts behind the parking lights, in between the grille and radiator support.

Tossed through the hole behind the headlights in the radiator support... They have been there without problems. Cheap-o set too, so I need to go get a set off of DDM... Big difference on warm up time.
