Question on Driving light switch install.
Those of you that have the Alta driving light set up, (The 4 big driving lights.) Does the kit have 2 switches or just one to turn on all 4 lights? If you dont mind, can you guys post a pic on where you installed your driving light switch? I could not see spending $400.00 for the light setup, so I bought the hella 500 series driving lights. (2 Sets.) @ $63.00 a set and $15.00 worth of mat. to make my own mount. Anyway, I thought about installing the switches next to the mirror controller down by the shifter. (One on each side.) If you know of a post here that discusses where to mount a switch, please let me know. Thanks for any help you may be able to provide...

I don't have a picture of my switch, but it is located on the left side of the steering column. Although it is out of sight, I can activate it with my left knee and can see the color of the LED in the reflection of the door handle.
I think it is pretty nifty to be able to turn them on and off without taking my hands off the wheel. . .

you can get some EZ Felt from Michael's Arts and Crafts and close up that
big hole you got there. you can just hot melt it onto the parcel tray.
even cut a slit in the EZ felt so you don't have to remove the switches
when you apply.
