I was visiting the Alta website today. The home page shows a faint photo of an S sporting 4 driving lights mounted below the bumper level. Any one have the same or know of mounting kit for such? Might be a good alternative to weight added to hood on Xenon headlights w/washer. Sure the lower position lights might be more prone to damage but sure looks sweet.

...but the heat of 4 lamps, not to mention the block in airflow, directly in front of the radiator CAN'T be a good thing....

Well, 4 may be somewhat of a cooling issue, but two at that location probably would not be a problem I think. I too am curious about the mounting strategy there. Anyone have an idea?

I think in that position, all you'll be doing is lighting up the sky
