Jesus were you guys not joking about how hard it is for people with big hands installing this AE set! I just want to know if it\'s okay for the ballast to touch the heat sink I\'ll try to get a pic from my phone soon once I get finish the drivers side

Sorry for the horrible grammar ^^^. Just want to rephrase what I said above. I just installed the lux angel eyes and the ballast is touching the back part of the heat sink. I was wondering if it's going to be okay and any heads up on where to place the ballast specifically. Thanks

It would be best if the black power supply dos not rest on top of the metal heatsink. the heatsink does get quite hot and the electronics are best if they are kept cooler, or at least not touching the heatsink

I just dropped mine behind the heatsink. There's a lot of space there. Is that ok?
