I'm curious, can the lights on the alta be aimed up and down or just side to side?

Thanks Rally.

Here's another side view.


And they are adjustable up/down - not side to side.

Whoa, no side to side aiming at all? Seems perfect to aim two in front and 2 to the side (i.e. ditches)

Interesting

The IPF lights that come with the ALTA kit are wide.

When installed, Steve recommended having 2 up and 2 down, Rally style. They are wide enough for me, especially as they are filler for the high beams. Even if they could, I would not angle them any further to the sides.

I do love the ALTA bar too.

Couple other questions:

1) Is there one switch for all four lights?
2) Where is the switch located?
3) Can you put ANY light on this bar? I'd love to have some Hella Black Magic lights on there!

The switches came with the lights themselves. You can buy the items seperate - therefore use other lights. My switches are located by my left leg - one for the outer 2 and the second for the inner 2 lights.

The hella black magic lights are 7" wide.. You can on;y get 2 lights on the alta bar. Thats what i heard from someone that had them. they would look good on there thats for sure.. I want the alta bar but i can't decide from the short shifter, alta light bar with lights, or camera for vacucams i have.... LOL 2 much to buy and install.... Its killing me...LOL Spike
