My ballast isnt actually mounted. It has been pressed down between the battery and the back of the headlight. does not move. On the other side it is pressed between 2 things, cant remember what they are. But there is a space about an inch or so wide that is perfect to slide it into... right behind the low beam of the passenger headlight

I just finish my 93ES HID. I mounted them right under the headlight. Drill two small holes and tiewrap them on what seem to be frame.

Default Mount Ballast

BTW, my is OEM of Lexus (IS300, if I am correct). They are very thin (less than 1") so very easy to mount anywhere. If you have the Hella or Philips, they are thicker, and may not fit under the headlight.
