So my kit came early today... And I just started trying to install them.

Out of curiousity... Where do the 04' guys mount the ballasts... I got the automotive kit and I'm stumped... I can't find any spots to place them and whatnot. This is a pain or I'm just a noob lol.

Right underneath the headlight inside the upper fairing is where mine is. I only have the low beam, though, so only one ballast to hide.

^^^^^^^^^^ I have both low and high and I got my ballasts there too. I used some velcro to make sure they stay together. Just had to bend the rubber water vent hose from the headlight just slightly.

Thanks for the suggestions guys. I really wasn't sure if thats where they should go or not. Works out perfect and the lights are mondo bright.


I think they're pointed a little upwards... How do you exactly adjust the lights, Do you mess with the actual housing?

I have no idea why but.... After the hid install... lol... When I use the front brake... as soon as I apply it my left turn signal comes on until I release the front brake haha???

It doesn't do it if I use the rear brake... I'm stumped on this one... I didn't touch any wires besides the ballasts and whatnot.

Took a few pictures but, They aren't great sorry... Pictures make the light look really blue because they're mondo bright but, they have a blue/purple look.
