That's a factory designed hole for the blinker fluid overflow.

That hole is covered when you install the oem ballast. I used an aftermarket ballast so i covered mine with insulation tape to prevent the lens from condensation.

yes it is. See those 3 screw holes in the bottom? The OEM ballast screws into those. Then the wires come out the top of the ballast, directly into the headlight, and run to the back of the projector, that way all the wiring is contained internally.
