? on Alta driving light bracket.
Are there holes already in the front bumper brace to install the ALTA driving light bracket, or do you have to remove the bumper cover and drill the 4 holes to install the bracket?
Thanks.....

The holes needed for the Alta light bar install DO NOT exist in your bumper. You have to drill them yourself, after careful measuring, of course.
I recommend using a corded drill, or at the very least, a cordless drill over 12V, with at LEAST 1 extra, fully-charged battery pack on hand.
Even though the bumper is hollow aluminum, it still will take a bit to get through both sides of it, four times.
And if I may emphasize the old addage, "measure twice, cut once", or in this case, drill once.

Thanks for the reply guys.
I hoped that the holes were already there
wishful thinking I guess....
. Again, thanks for the replies and I guess I'll get a new drill bit before I take a go at it.
