Aftermarket Fog Lights - Modular Front Bumper

I know I'm giving away a money making idea - but Bronco logo, bucking bronco or Sasquatch projector puddle lights on the doors.

Something so obvious overlooked. Since they have the pony on Mustang, ST on those models and Lincoln on there products. That person must have been on vacation when Bronco hit that stage of development.

I am betting that Fog Lights will be 1 of 200 accessories that the dealer can install for you on the steel bumper.

It was mentioned somewhere that Rigid lights will be on the accessories list. Since they've been using them on the various builds being shown kind of supports that.

True but I don't like the Rigid lights and if my WildTrak comes with fogs - I don't want to lose them if they factory delete and install a modular steel with winch - especially for the factory fog switch on the main headlight switch.. I think I'll take my chances in the aftermarket - the Warn Elite has an opening for fogs - don't know if they transplant from the original WildTrak or they are totally separate. Either way I'm going with KC HIlites for my aux lighting package.

There will be plenty of choices. Most of this stuff isn't model specific which makes things even easier. In my case, I might just get the aux switches and add lights myself.

That's my plan exactly. Finding the "right" light pattern is going to take some time.

Couldn't agree more.

At this point I'm less disappointed in losing fogs with the steel bumper than I am with the trail cam issue when adding a winch. I saw the trail cam with winch at super cel east and it's a giant fail.

It won't be fixed with a simple solenoid relocate either. It's still pointing right at the bar, and I think you'll still see the winch even without the solenoid.

The whole steel bumper mess is a real issue.

I am extremely disappointed with their winch solution for the modular front bumper. Maybe they have an alternative bumper through Ford performance, but I would hate to have to pay more for it when the I plan to get the Badlands.

I will probably hold off on adding a winch until the aftermarket comes up with something better.

Same here. I'm not going to spend money to buy the Ford winch mounting solution when I can just buy a new bumper.

I hope Ford offers a dealer installed fog light option for the modular front bumper. I am pretty much set on Black Diamond and that’s the one thing that’s bugging me. I live in a rural coastal area where fog lights are a necessity certain times of the year. My past experience with having non dealer lights installed (PIAA) was that they were so darn bright I blinded everyone.

seems like your lights were not properly aimed

here's some guidelines on proper aiming of different types of forward lights

I see lots of bolt holes on these bumpers. If my picture loads properly, check out the two I pointed out. Lets hope they are mounting holes for fog lights!

raptor has the same holes and the aftermarket will def have lights for those holes:

Baja design already has something posted for the Bronco here:

Looks like a place holder BUT there will def be lights

If they have a bracket to get the lights tucked in tight in those holes towards the center of the vehicle, I am very interested. I am still worried that by putting fog lights there and removing the end caps (if it's even still possible), you are just asking for them to get knocked off. It probably won't be a problem 99% of the time, but it would be a huge bummer to lose one of those lights!

If they don't have a bracket, I have considered mounting the lights sideways by drilling a hole through the little tab that bends back and points towards the rear of the vehicle in that same opening. This will free up all of the existing hardware that is for taking the end caps off. Also, I should be able to adjust the internals and lens on Baja Designs lights in order for them to retain a proper beam pattern and have them mounted as tightly as possible into the upper inside corner of those openings.
