Sorry everybody, I've been a little busy lately.
I don't have any pics of the installation.
It's hard to explain where you need to put the ballast but, it wont fit inside the fog light housing, I placed the ballast above the batwing behind the front bumper and ran the wiring through to the lights. You don't need to add anything to run the HID's they will plug into and will run fine off your factory wiring.
As I said I have the HID's in the fog lights. Where the driving lights are (inner portion of the Euro Fogs) is another H3 bulb that will come on only with your high beams. This is how it was factory in the ROW I believe, so that's how I wired mine. I ran a separate power from the back of the alternator to a relay and used the high beam power from the drivers side headlight to trigger the relay.
What I may do in the future is add an additional fog light switch to control them, as of now they just come on with the high beams.

I upgraded my head lights and fog lights to hid in my 944 turbo. 50 bucks a set shipped from china or japan i think. ive had them for 4 months now and no problems. its about 10x easier to see at night too and i dont get flashed much.
