I mounted the ballast on the plastic piece that's in front of the radiator at the bottom, so far so good, no heat problems or nothing, just alot of light! :)

The lights looks sick! good job! :thumbs: I want to do a hid conversion to my piaas, but I don't know where to mount the ballasts. How do you like the 8k? I had 8k hids from a different website and it was too blue. I keep going back and forth between 6k or 8k from ddm.

Thank you, I mounted the ballast to the plastic thingy down and in front of the radiator, and ran the wire threw one of the slots in the grill, ill take pics of how there mounted when I get a chance, I like the 8ks cuz of the little tint of blue Haha I had 10k on my wife's and those were super blue! But the 8k is just the right amount of white an blue, looks cool too lol

just remember that everyone sees light differently. so 8000K might be the right amount of blue for one person as 6000K might be enough blue for some one else. Also with quality control, one company's 6000K might looks like another's 8000K, and so on and so on. Also HIDs have a break in period of about 100 hours where at the light changes, and usually goes to a lower temp range of color. not a few thousand difference per se, but enough that some may notice.
