“BRONCO” Grill Badge Light Up

[BroncoDymond88]

Got mine on today also, it did take a long time but the biggest pain was hiding all the wires with the Wildtrak grille. I ran mine to Aux 3 and used the prerun cable to the grille. I added the Expel PPF letters at the end as well.

For those wondering, the letters are not as bright as they look in some photos, they are not as bright as the headlights. IMO this is great, it's more subtle, and yes, they do look better in person!

I should have posted here instead of the other forum -

Mine arrived yesterday - looking forward to installing this weekend.

Quick question - has anyone been able to tie the lighting into the running lights or driving (low or high) lights? I'm not looking to use a switch to control them and having LED factory lights know that its a bit more complex than just plugging them into the wiring harness.

Was thinking this too, but curious if anyone knows how to wire these to come on when the parking lots are on?

Parking lights are position #9 on the factory headlight plug. You can connect the + to that to get them to come on with the parking lights.

If these were RGB, that would be amazing. I’d likely want an amber color light to go with my Base headlights.

These look fantastic.. Makes me a little nervous about drilling into the stock grill... For those who've done it, how easy would it be to return to stock?

Good questions, I actually decided to buy another grille and work on that one I was so convinced I was going to screw it up. Dealer said it's $450 plus painting......so I canned that idea and went for broke on the original grille. There's really no going back once you drill the original letters out, unless you file them down and tape them, or figure out how to screw them back in with wide head screws.

The biggest challenge was placing the letter just right so they are in line and not crooked, but I would say just press gently and make sure it's where you want it before really clamping down.

Watch eville truck’s YouTube video where he did it so he could color match his letters to the factory paint. My understanding is to use adhesive to put the factory one back on.

Do you know which position is for the DRLs?

Installed my Oracle ”BRONCO” lights today! I’ve done very little wiring/splicing before. But this project was pretty simple with the right tools… wire cutter/crimper, extra wire (red & black), electrical tape, wire connectors, drill & bit. I had to wait for the video to really understand it, so thanks Bronco Life! Drilling out the letters was easy enough. Like others suggested, I wired from the outside letters to the middle and then connected it to the extra wire I bought and ran the red to an aux wire and grounded the black. For those wondering about putting on color vinyl lettering, the letters aren’t exact to the originals (see pics). A couple of my letters didn’t have a perfect finish (especially the “C”) and one had small scratches (the ”N”) despite being very nicely bubble wrapped in shipping. Overall though I think it looks great and it was a fun project.
