KennyPOLO Gti - I assume you ment me?
I mounted my Balast behind the front cross member behind the bumper. It ment taking the bumper off but when you look under the bonnet there is nothing visable that shouldnt be there and you can hide all the extra wires really neatly. It was a bit of a nightmare when putting the bumper back on because at the time I had the origonal bumper on it with the headlight washer system - It is an ball ache replacing the washer system - be warned!! Its worth getting your levels checked after you install them just in case you have kicked up the lights when fitting (I did) - dont want to annoy other road users. Worth the effort though as Xenons are truely amazing at night and in fog

I met the people behind the HIDS4U face today. Very good people - i had to pick up a replacement ballast which got lost in the christmas post.
Seemed like a happy lot of chaps!

lol I had to ring them the last time I ordered mine as I ordered the wrong bulbs, dah! They seemed happy but very helpful too!
This time tho, they've sent me 6000k I ordered 5000k...but they've sent the correct 55w kit. Now hope that the bulbs aren't too big for the lenses...will see when I fit them in a few weeks time! *fingers crossed* will post piccies when done
