the best place to mount the ballast will be underneath the headlight, just like the dc5r HID. you can go to hardware store and buy a couple of soft metal strips (so that you can bend it)

Yes, you will have to take off the bumper and headlight to do it if you want a clean job.

i don't have pics, but you can search it on clubrsx.com It has a bunch of pics and DIY instruction there.

I've been told that right inside each of the fender's is a good spot. Well protected also.
