You took the whole bumper apart??

I took off the bumper as well. I found this install method much easier and more secure because i ran a relay cable and wanted my ballasts to be secure incase of bumps.

^ yup i agree, there's more room to work with and i could make sure everything's secured. Also there's a perfect spot behind the bumper support for the ballasts.

I didnt use a relay for mine, been about 3 months no problems =)
I had my ballast taped behind the bumper with 3m tape.

I wanted to secure the ballasts behind the bumper support. It was actually pretty easy to take off/put on, a little too easy.
