I insulated My Ballasts with roofing rubber.I also extended the wires from the Ballast so that I could mount them on the inner fenderwall by the struts to keep them dry.
--------------------------------------------------------------------
The rubber was used to insulate the ballast so that the metal of the ballast does not contact the cars metal.
The extended wires were soldered & sealed using shrink tubing.

A proper HID setup doesn't require you to aim your lights down. If you are throwing that much glare up you need a sheild or projector retrofit. Aiming your lights down is taking away the advantage of HID's as your hotspots are now on the road a few feet infront of you, not straight ahead to illuminate the road in the distance and other objects. Now you are just looking ahead off of the glare you were throwing up. Great setup. Stick to some blue jap bulbs and get rid of your rice kit, and most of all, stop running your mouth.
------------------------------------------------------------------
HID is a LOT brighter than any plain bulbs. So a minor aiming adjustment is what I did & works just fine.
Do You even have HIDs? "Run my Mouth" Heck You do not even have HIDs & You have the nerve to post.
This guy asks for help & i am sure He would rather hear from someone that has HIDs and not from someone that wish's they had HIDs
