Mounting HID ballasts?

Where should I mount my slim ballasts and how? Don't have brackets for them so double sided tape will work? Anyone have any pictures maybe of some ideas? Thanks.
 


Put them under your headlights... in the bumper cover. I zip tied mine. I got 2 sets of hid's so 4 ballasts. 2 under each light.
 
honestly, just take some 3m double sided tape and cover up one side of the ballast and stick it somewhere hidden and accessible. My fogs are mounted to the frame. My passenger side headlight ballasts are zip tied to the fender support kinda behind the battery and my driver side ballasts are just right behind the bumper in the area right next to the grill insert. all i gotta do is take out the headlights to get to my ballasts
 
On my previous car, I had them stuck to the bottom of the bumper (metal part) with two sided tape; clean surfaces with brake clean, warm up surfaces with heat gun if it is cold, stick away.

I installed my first pair of ballast's in the winter when it was almost freezing out, and the ballast's stayed put for 3.5 years.
