You could try taking off the splash guard under the engine to do it from below or try taking off your wheel-well liners and doing it from behind. In both cases it is just a few screws, but I don't know if they will give you enough space to mount the ballasts properly.

Yes, you can, but...you'll want a jack to get under there and removal of your splash guards is essential. I recommend zip ties also...

i've done it from the front on an m-tech bumper inside the foglight space and i've done it with the splashshield off on the bottom. i think the splash shield was the easiest and best method for securing properly.

You can actually reach in through the front and mount them up inside the metal reinforcement bar or against the plastic wheel well. Or you can go in from the wheel well if your front bumper doesn't have much room to reach in./
