Default Where is the xenon ballast mount in Factory Xenon A4? Can someone post some pic?

I bought a pair of OEM xenon housing and a pair of philips ballast that came out from TT and would like to find out how to install it.

1)Where is it located in A4 that has factory xenon?
2)Do I have to drill anything on the OEM xenon housing?
3)Do I need any special harness? (like harness with connector that plug into the original halogen connector?!)

Default Its in the bottom of the light unit.

I have no pic...but you'll see a rectangular space on the underside...thats where the oem ballast is mounted.

Yes, but aftermarket balasts won't fit.
