Default Help with Custom Dynamics HID Conversion

I just received the kit for my 08 SB, the instructions are veg rather poor but easy to understand. My question is to anyone who has the kit already on a Bob with a 5 3/4 housing, where did you put the relay, ballast and all the other crap that goes along with it? For as much wire and parts as attached to the bulb, I do not see any way to get inside the light fixture? Was thinking about underneath the tank but I doubt there is any room and want all this as hidden as possible. Pic's would be awesome?

I am not sure about the kit you have, I have an HID setup in my 5 3/4 bucket no problems ; but mine doesn't have a relay it was just plug and play!!!
