it should come with that silicone rubber thingy... and i didnt drill mine... our headlights got like a case thingy... well my ballast fit inside perfectly without it shaking or anything... so i didnt drill em... on my fogs i just used double sided tape to hold it...

the real headache part is taking of the engine cover and the oem intake box
