HIDs put out less heat than halogen bulbs. Electronic ballasts don't even get warm. DO NOT mount ballasts by your fairing speaker magnets. I went through several ballasts 'til I figured that out.
How 'close' can they be?  Do you mean a few 'inches' or more than that?  spyder

At first I was mounting them right in the pocket on the outside of the batwing by the speakers. The ballasts were about 2 inches away from the magnets. I mounted the ballasts about 4-5 inches away and haven't had a problem since.
