anyone recommend a good spot to mount the ballast in a 2007 civic coupe
i took a peak inside and it looked pretty cramped, even to just remove the stock 9006 bulbs

also i noticed my kit did not come with a relay so i will hook it up straight to the 9006 sockets, do any of you guys have issues with the bulbs not firing up all the time? i have this problem on muy supra sometimessss, guess the ballast need a constant power level to charge up and ignite the hid bulb

thanks for your input!

 

I took the bumper off the car, and mounted the passenger one next to the frame rail near the core support. Did the same on the drivers side.

i did what he did.

 

i mounted mine by the fust box and on the frame in front of the radiator.. didn't want to mount it somewhere i can't get to easily

 

yeah definelty like the taking off the bumper trick nice and clean look but im gonna have to go the easy route considering i usuualy break those bumper clips

are you guys using relays or strait up plug and plays to your 9006 harneses?

 

i hate those dam bumber clips. The stupid lines never line up for me and the end always ends up breaking on me!

HID kits are bad. /rant whenever I see someone talking about HID kits.

Anyway, if you don't have a relay, get yourself a wiring harness. If you plug them directly into your 9006 sockets, you run the risk of frying your stock wiring.

 

awsome awsome so i guess now the question becomes how to wire a relay
hehe
any takers?
