Well it isn't exactly horizontally mounted on my ATV and I had to play with positions to get it where I wanted it but, it works just fine. Due to where I mounted it on the very front of my ATV rack and in order to get all the light above a snow blade when it is in the up position, I had to space the light up high enough to get it over the top of the bull bar in front of the very front ATV rack rail and then rested the brackets against the front of the bull bar, rotated the light to where I wanted it to be and tightened everything down. So, it's where I want it, I've got all of the unimpeded light I need. It's out of the way when I want to pile gear onto the front rack. So, it works just fine. Thanks.
