and a canbus.

hmmm

where did you mount balast? What about canbus resistor, which is said to be hot
Did you take off bumper?
I went with the 35 watt kit not the 50 and I was told that the resistor does not get as hot with this kit. I stuffed all of it in the back of the headlight and it has been working just fine for the past month or so. The fog light ballasts were mounted on the fender liner. Works well and in fact the canbus resistor does not get that hot. The bumper stayed on for both installs. The driver side was a little challenging since the air box does not give you much room to work with but the passenger side was a breeze.
