I mounted mine on the driver side behind and under the airbox, I found a few unused bolt hole locations on the engine bay frame, and on the passenger side i mounted in front of the washer tank and below it, again, using an existing bolt hole.

The morimoto bolts that come with their ballasts were threaded correctly so it was fairly easy. or you could get some industrial velcro and go that route that JB mentioned, just as long as its good industrial velcro, and those fuckers arent going anywhere, you're good. Come to think of it, I might want a little more flexibility with hiding my ballasts, so I may end up using the industrial velcro method, as right now my wiring doesn't have as much slack as I would like it to.

Can't remember what it looks like from below but we have the same front end. I will pull the plastic and get a sense of what I have to work with.

I have industrial velcro. It's great stuff! Part of the always have on hand next to the duct tape.

Thanks and also RB

You have inspired me to hide my ballasts better with industrial Velcro as well, going to get some and do it this weekend. My OEM Valeo fog light housings are on their way, I can't wait to get the HID fogs working again.

Driver's side for what it's worth. They've held just fine for almost four years now.

Late to the thread, but this is my headlight upgrade to my 4.6is.;)

Lemans, are those turn signals/side markers LEDs in those headlights?

Those are the Depo headlights with LED turn signals, seen here:

Depo 00 03 BMW E53 x5 D2S Xenon HID Headlight LED Angel Halo LED Corner Signal | eBay

LeMans, love your 4.6!

Ordered the ballasts--thanks for the input.

Yes they are LEDs

Thanks. I occasionally get flickering on side LEDs but ok otherwise.

Late to this party, but I bought a regular set of DEPO headlights off ebay and swapped in my HID projectors from my OEM headlights.... It gave it a facelift look, but then I swapped everything back to the OEM housing and swapped the in the new lenses from the DEPO headlights... Made it look like a brand new car again!

Angle eyes are definitely cool, but I actually prefer the OEM look!
