Default HID High and Low

Does anyone have HIDs in both the low beam and the high beam i just ordered my lows (already have high due to my girlfriend mixing up the bulb for valentines day) but where are yall putting the ballasts? especially since there will be four. I prefer not to do the front bumper thing cause if one goes bad i dont want to have to take off the bumper everytime i need to repair/fix.

on my recommendation based on personal experience, don't do HID high beams. they take too long to to power up once you flip them on.

i got so annoyed with that, waste of money.

imo HID high beams are sweet. Yeah it sucks because you can't flick them on and off because its bad for the HID.... so keep them on! They look sweet during the day when they are on. of course.... you'll blind everyone in signt if you have them on at night.
