I would never place those things inside the headlights, I don't think you can properly secure them. Maybe that's OK if all the roads are as smooth as a racing circuit, but here that isn't the case...

As for the balasts, there's more then enough room in the ASX/OS to hide them.
Mine are behind the plastic sidewalls. Those that you have to remove to be able to swap out parking lights.

I also noticed you don't have a relay. My DRL are on the low beam? Don't you need a relay? Otherwise the will flicker no?

Agreed! I've done 2 HID kits on previous cars and never put the ballast inside the headlight housing. The ballasts' that I used (2 different brands) both got hot when mounted to the inner fenders in the engine bay. To each their own...just sharing my experience. If it works inside the headlight housing....that's awesome!

Help

I need help with my new RVR SE (outlander sport) I'd like to install HIDs but there are so many options and issues that some websites state. I'd like a cost effective install but a proper one. I've heard about warning cancelers, does this car need those for the HID install?

I have my entire HID system inside my headlight housing. I don't remember if it's the low or high beams I have it inside, butasdfa;jlsdkfj

Found it, it was my high beams that I had to drill the cover and fish the harness through

The projectors in the non-HID ASX are designed for halogen bulbs. If you want maximum output, a retrofit is your best choice -- Philips 85122+ bulbs, Mitsubishi/Matsu s h i t a 35w ballasts and projector lenses (2.5"-3" bixenon projectors) designed for HID bulbs. The result is bright light with a sharp cutoff and bulbs that last for years.
