What kind of kit do you have?

They should just be plug and play. They have a connector to connect to your old wires.

The bolt mine was grounded on was directly visable and on the inside of the engine compartment (not out by the headlight)

My ballasts were mounted to the underside of the black plastic headlight mount. Worked very nice.
