Brera HID Headlight Mod - where to put the ballasts?!

I bought a kit off Ebay, after reading a post from another user who had got great results, after fitting to his 159. The kit looks to be good quality, but im wondering if anyone else has fitted one to a 2.2 Brera? There's not a lot of space under the bonnet and i'm struggling to think of a suitable location in which to mount the ballasts. This is a link to the kit:- http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/170693609212
Any advice/suggestions appreciated - thanks!

Thanks Snokio. I looked quite hard on the forum before posting my own query, but couldn't find any info. Figured it out for myself in the end. Do you have the link? It would be interesting to see where others have mounted the units and if they are in the same places as my own - cheers

That was my thread.
Had to put it in the images lounge as couldn't post them in the standard lounges.

Did you find a good place to seat them?
They seem fine where I have put them, enough space to let them vent as they do warm up.
