I have been looking at videos and pictures of the pillar mount lights built by a many different companies(BD,DD,KC and Rigid). I don't like the look of the lights mounting directly on the cowl.
The Body Guard mount looks really nice, Are there other kits that actually have a cowl mounting plate?
I see BD has one but watched a video and it looked like it wasn't included. Seems everyone's light kits are just a little different.
Anyone else using different brackets, pictures would be nice.

You can purchase the bodyguard brackets separately, $75/pr. I haven't seen anything similar from others

I bought my Baja Designs pillar kit from @4x4TruckLEDs.com and it came with the mounting plate that uses the 2 Bronco screws and has a threaded stud to mount the light bracket on. Also came with full wire harness, additional lenses and some rubber strips for mounting too. It was a very nice kit, I would recommend 10/10.

Almost every kit out there mounts to the exact same points on the mirror area. Baja Designs provides an 'off-set' plate which is NOT required to install the lights unless you have their bigger XL Series. Some folks use it because it does off-set them a little bit.

Here are two videos showing the Baja Designs pillar lights installed





Both used the Baja Designs lights: https://www.4x4truckleds.com/baja-designs-a-pillar-kit-for-2021-ford-bronco/

You can also get the Diode Dynamics lights as well which install very similar: https://www.4x4truckleds.com/diode-dynamics-stage-series-ss3-ditch-light-kit-for-2021-ford-bronco/

Pickens Party of 5 showed the installation if you DO NOT have upfitters. And CoderMan showed the installation if you DO Have upfitters.

I have the Motobuilt brackets. They set up a little higher and out a little further. Very stout But, they do come unpainted, which i didnt realize.

I bought Heretic personally. IMHO I believe they are the sharpest-looking lights available.

I have NO connection to them whatsoever, except that they are from Utah. To me they are sexy and I can't wait to get them on my Bronco. I bought the light bar and the ditch lights.

These raise them and allow you to add multiple lights if that is of interest.

Check out our kits than - made here in the USA and (as far as I know) we are the only ones who use stainless steel for our brackets AND powder cost them (so it’s not just normal steel that can rust)

I’m a fan of your products and ordered some DD lights from you last month. I’m not questioning quality of your brackets, I’m sure they are great. I would like to find a bracket that doesn’t bolt to the top inside of the holes in the mod bumper.
