brobradh77 Posted April 17, 2007 Report Share Posted April 17, 2007 Is there a particularly good place to mount these they come with some sort of mounting bracket with 2 small screws so I was just curious if there is a spot where those screws screw right on inn or if I am going to have to get out the drill.

kaotik1 Posted April 18, 2007 Report Share Posted April 18, 2007 The last set I put in, we removed the headlight and turns signals. There is a spot right back there that works out perfect. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2006SilverSS Posted April 18, 2007 Report Share Posted April 18, 2007 The last set I put in, we removed the headlight and turns signals. There is a spot right back there that works out perfect. I did the same thing. I have some pics of where I mounted them at home. I'll see about uploading and posting them tomorrow since I have the same kit that you just got brobradh77.

I think it took me about 40 minutes but I had to take out the old HID kit I had also. I'll get those pics up in about an hour from now or sooner if I can.

2006SilverSS Posted April 18, 2007 Report Share Posted April 18, 2007 Ok, here are the pics of where I mounted the ballasts. The brackets bent some while tightening the bolts back up, but it was easy enough to re-shape them to they could still hold the ballasts. You can also see that I had to cut away a little of the plastic to get the plug in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn't have to drill anything, I used the existing bolts, had I thought about it I could have taken a pic of before and after. There should be the existing bolts, it's a tight fit with the bracket (use the last hole on the bottom) if you go this route. Let me know if you have any other questions.
