Default Ballast mounting in GS....Any pics?

Anyone got pics to show where I should mount my ballasts (for GS)?

Thanks in advance.

ah you should have become a paid member or saved the diy i wrote some while ago it's available only to paid member now

anyway, there are some very think wiring (with the hard black cover) along the two sides, that's where i mount my ballasts to using zip ties

I remember seeing your DIY... yah....i should have saved it.

I looked at my mother's GS....she got OEM HIDs.....her ballasts were mounted underneath the housing area. That's a cleaner install, but it'll take more time since I'd probably have to remove the front bumper and headlight housing to do this.

well, even worse, with non-hid housing, there is no where under the housing for you to mount the ballast to and yes, it's too much trouble
