Re: Which HIDS to buy
Does anyone have a good picture of where to mount the Ballast? Is there somthing different about the dirtlights kit that prevents the problem others are having with one light not working or starting?

I don't have a picture of it but I placed the ballast(s) on the top portion of the upper radiator mount. Its a flat surface and the ballast sits on it perfectly. I zip tied them in place along with the excess wire harness using existing holes in the metal frame.

Re: Which HIDS to buy
Mine are similar to what Guy posted with the exception that I laid my ballasts flat and slightly more to the right on the frame/bracket.

Re: Which HIDS to buy
Keep in mind that after the upgrade you will not have "dim" lights.
So passing oncoming vehicles is not going to be a friendly experience.

Re: Which HIDS to buy
I ordered them from Dirtlights on Sun. nite & they were here in 2 days. I installed them yesterday, I drilled 2 holes on the radiator bracket to mount the ballast, Plug & play otherwise.
These HID's are awesome and the ballast are very low profile and sealed perfectly.
I have the S with the pre runner bumper and 2 Kragen 4" Hid's mounted on it as well.

Re: Which HIDS to buy
having done both the external ballasts and the plug and play bulbs, and the internal ballasts (like the checker lights) I would say go with the checker lights. I put two of them on my cage and they are way brighter than the two i replace my headlights with.
plus they are way easier to install.
