Hi. I know how to connect the HID kit and everything but where and how can you mount the ballast? For a 96 Accord. Thanks.

I think you may want to try www.honda-tech.com or a Honda based forum for your questions.

Mount it anywhere you want. Basically, just find an open space that's not near any moving parts or parts that get extremely hot and you should be fine.

3m double sided tape should be enough to keep the ballast mounted. Just make sure both of the surfaces are thoroughly clean.
