Where to mount hid componets for fog lights?

i just recently got my 8k jids for my headlights and i want to upgrade my fog lights with hids(ill post some pics of them whn i get to my dads house) . but i was wondering if anyone can show me a couple of pics of where you mounted the ballast/relay harness if there is one and the ignitors. any help will be greatly appreciated.

I mounted mine on my 02 gt up under the front bumper. IIRC there was a metal tray (maybe the battery tray) there that I zip tied one of the boxes to and I mounted the other on up under the bumper on the other side. Unfortunately I don't have any pics of how I mounted them though. One of my friends put it on the lift for me at his work and helped me put them in.

ya im definetly gonna put my car on a lift to put them in. I was thinking i could mount them next to the bumper support or somewhere near there

ya. near the bumper support would be fine. i miss my 6 k fogs. i aimed mine all the way up and they reached out further than my headlights after having them aimed with the new black housings.

would highly reccomend aiming your fogs up. There is a thumb screw on the back of the fogs that you can turn to aim them.

you got black housings for your fogs? i was just gonna aim them at the same angle of my headlights so they meet up and make a bright a** light

Ive got VVME Hid kit for my fogs and the ballasts are on top of the metal bumper brace right under the headlights they actually take up some of the sag and fitment issues so the bumper fits better.

I meant black headlight housings. I used the stock foglight housings. IIRC they started to get cracks in them after I put the hid fogs in though.

I have evreything pretty well tucked for my headlights and i mounted my ballast on the metal bumper support with some self tappers. i was thinking of putting the fog light ballast on the front of the bracket or maybe on the side.
