Okay playing around with the idea of rally lights... wanting possibly five
all indiviually switched or in pairs, for the amount of light output needed. here is a pic of what i kind want anyone know where or how i would go about mounting them??

 

Brackets connected to the bumper mounted behind the plastic bumper cover for the outer two. Then go to a metal shop and have them fab up a piece of steel in an arc that would match what you have there. Kinda like a bull bar.
I am thinking about linking mine together with a straight bar and putting a couple smaller lights on it. I need a front plate, so the less I block the better.

 

Dude...I like the looks of that A LOT! I've been thinking of doing something simmilar. What you need though is some smoked marker light lenses...

A set on the grey would be fantastic!

 

but it would be do-able? the five lights? is there enough space??

 

Mine are about as far over left and right you can get without cutting into the bumper. You might be able to squeeze a couple inches more, but thats it. If you staggered them as they went up and over I think you could squeeze 5 on there pretty easily. Just look at mine and add the other three in there. In fact, take mine to photoshop and copy in three more lights. At least you know it will be to scale.
How you mount them on the bent hoop of a bar will be the big issue. Need to find a flat spot or one that doesn't max out the adjustment of the light.

 

i love this! and having been looking for this pic for a long time!

 

Here, just to get your juices flowing, even though I'm one light short any my wiring is sloppy:

 

are those hella 500's in the first pic of the thread? they look a bit smaller

 

They look like they are but they're photoshopped in so they aren't quite to scale.

The bottom set in this pic is about as close as I'd mount 500s so that there is room to make aiming adjustments.

 

you have a pretty sweet set up. are those 500 amber fogs or did you put yellow film on them? i'm getting hella 500's and i want 'em yellow, but i'm not sure whether to get amber fogs or driving lights and put on yellow films. i heard that driving lights are great for night driving, especially at high speeds but seems like i'd only be able to use 'em when there's absolutely no one else around

 

Thanks, they're the amber fogs, so its a clear fog lens with a white buld and yellow tinted reflector. There is a distinctly "more yellow" shade of light from them compared to my low beam light (which is a Lamin-X file and Hella H7 bulbs). The fogs have as best I can tell to not cause any issues with oncoming traffic.

The driving lights absolutely rock, over a mile on the beam and I see everything in between, with the white headliner even lights up with the reflection off the pavement speed limit signs can be temporarily blinding when the beam crosses them, fortunately I live far enough into the boonies that I can use them regularly.

 

I just found this light bar on ebay. Its pretty much a copy of the alta bar and looks great. Especially for 40 bux.

Yeah, I've seen a couple of people with that bar installed and it looks good from what I've seen. That's how I would go...even if it was just to mount two lights in the middle.

 

I just purschased one, I currently have my custom light bar for 2 hellas , but I do not like it as much due to where I positioned them. I will let you peeps know how this one goes.

He has one more available.

Somebody ****** that up before it goes away, it is worth it.

 

I just got the light bar and it looks perfect. The fit and finish is excellent and it looks just like the alta bar. Even better cuz the logo isnt carved out. For 40 bux this light bar is perfect.
