Neither could I, so I opted with the double sided tape. There is no where to really mount them. The pass. side I mounted next to the wiper fluid (hopefully no one spills that **** lol) and the drivers side I mounted ontop of the fuse box.
 






This is how I did it:

Hey guys
a quick follow up:
I'm selling the Explorer, and last night I took out the HID's you see in the previous photos.
6500K, 9006 set, with ballasts, mounting hardware you see above.

Since 9006's are not used here in Europe they are little use to me. If anyone wants the whole package for 60 bucks I ship them for free and also throw in a small swiss chocolate as a souvenir :)
paypal is OK.

Does that include Australia (the free shipping, and especially the chocolate bit). If so, I'll take them. Just PM me your paypal email account thing, and I'll PM you my address. If shipping to Oz is a bit more than to the US, then I'd be happy to pay the extra.
 






If you'd rather see them on a blue X than a red 1 let me now, damm Jcuz you are too fats

i'm pricky about installations and seeing wires so i hid both my ballast under the radiator cover..not sure if thats what you would call it but its the plastic part that covers the radiator n fan
