I'm wanting the signature lights, but I'm contemplating adding them on later if possible. I'm just wondering if it'll be a hard installation and what the cost would be installing them as if they're after market

My educated guess is that it won't be a plug-and-play swap; you'll need some new harnesses (probably made by an aftermarket party) in order to swap. Those aren't inexpensive, and then there are the matter of the lamps themselves...be prepared to drop serious coin.

It will be easy plug-and-play but probably not available for a very long time. All stock will go to the production line.

I am considering a Big Bend (build pictured below)
My build has - optional Signature headlights ($795)

When I look at the build picture from behind (not here), it has standard halogen tails lights, NOT the awesome LED tail lights pictured below. One of the Bronco Instagram accounts (help me out here) asked a Ford rep (reliable?) at a recent show if LED-tail-lights will be offered with Big Bend and the answer was "yes". Alas, there is no LED tail light option in B&P.

I am happy to pay $795 for the Signature light option, but I am NOT happy if I cannot/do not get the matching LED tail lights!

I will pay extra for the LED tail lights if I have to, but PLEASE FORD, don't make me have mis-matched front and rear lights!

I was watching when they were doing the live Q&A on one of the social media outlets, Instagram or twitter, and i did see they did say the tail lights and headlights come as a packaged deal. I'm trying to find that screengrab i had, but it is hiding from me. I also just sent my dealer that same question. Hopefully he will send me something concrete.

Dug through the forum, finally found it. The Moab Q&A from Bronco Nation.

I had seen this too, but it's hardly official. I asked Granger and they didn't know. When I put Signature lights anon BB in B&P, the picture in the rear shows standard lights. This little detail could tip the balance for me on making a decision.

But I can’t get them on Black Diamond which is a more expensive trim. Makes perfect sense.
Ever try to understand airline ticket pricing? As nice as they are, Ford does need to make money on the Bronco which is why they don't give the whole enchilada on lower trims. Get a Badlands is what they're saying.

I have no idea what you’re talking about so here’s a Quokka:

*Sigh* more reason to think of not going BD . EXCEPT that I want standard headlights and signature tail lights.

There a few weird inconsistencies with options on trims.
You can option a sound deadening headliner on the BB but you can’t on the BD. (Squatch)
Kind of goes against the grain of more options and accessories as you go up in trim levels. And according to Ford the BD is a higher trim level than the BB..
Things That make you go huh?

Is BB the better trim if you have a pellet stove?

BD, mid, squatch and LED tail light head light options would be the perfect combo.
