10. Adjust and aim your lightbar and tighten
all the screws.
If you purchased the SS5 kit, adjust the lightbar
to the desired curvature and tighten all screws.
Make sure the rubber bumpers on the supports
touch the windshield frame and then while a
friend creates tension by pulling the bar out,
tighten the CrossLink supports. This will
help mitigate vibration.
Secure the wires and test thoroughly
