The problem is the led's that some of us have tried don't allow for the dust cover to seal. The only option was to cut the dust cover. As for the resistors, they can be mounted on metal surface because they will get HOT. I made extensions and mounted on the frame beside the fog lights

Ran into the same issue.

On my motorcycle, I cut off a bit of the rubber gasket, with a box cutter. On the wife's truck, I added an extension. Then mounted resistors on the inner fender well.

i used the u3 led digital can-bus ones there plug and play with nothing extra to wire up/mount they have a small ballast and a small capacitor that fits in the headlight nicely as for the dust cover u can heat the plastic and modify or what i did was cut a circle with a hole saw a little bigger than the led bulb and then used sound deadening to cover it up works perfectly
