    Hey what’s up guys. Just recently retro fit my headlight with Morimoto 4500k. But I’m running into mounting options it’s a mess right now and everything is held in with zip ties . If you can post pictures of where you mounted yours in the engine bay that’d be awesome !

    Mounting the ballasts and converter.

    Passenger side is behind the windshield washer reservoir on the fender apron, drivers side is mounted on the fender apron beside the battery. Pretty well hidden. I dont like aftermarket wiring to show at all.

    Did you receive any interference so far with using velcro tape? I'm gonna try that tomorrow, I don't like the idea of drilling anything.

    Y’all over here trying to do stuff all pretty and right, I got a new self tappers and just stabbed the ballast wherever it would sit mostly flat and I called it a day. Been like that for 15000 miles and absolutely zero issues. It’s not pretty but it’s well grounded and that’s all that matters.
