Capable Bumper LED conversion.

[Chrome_Pony]

Those of you with the MY22 "Capable" bumper have there been any manufacturers posting about LED kit development? All my searches show up the triple light kits for the modular bumper.

Looking for something in the vein of @Baja Designs fog pocket kit, like this version on a Ranger.

If the capable bumper fogs are the same as the plastic one (which I'd believe they should be, since the capable is just an upgraded version of the plastic one). Then I don't see any reason the current fog kits won't work.

They are towards the bottom of the list (page 2)

Also following here as interest in DD or BD fog light replacement in the stock capable bumper locations

Can you explain the difference between the SAE, Pro, and Sport?

SAE is a street legal light, not the brightest light out there but it's designed to be an SAE fog light
Sports are brighter and don't have as clean a cut-off as the SAE
Pros are even brighter

Are the Sports or Pros not street legal?

That is correct. Although I run Pros on my Raptor and have never had issues. I aim the lights down at the ground. But they are NOT street legal, but i've never had issues

Bumping this up....looking for this but ALSO something to go in this pocket BESIDE the OEM Fogs on the capable bumper.

Like I'd really like to run the white OEM and an aftermarket amber.

That's the perfect size for a @Baja Designs S2 light, but the surround might need some trimming, and it would be mounted sideways.

I have not tried any of my S2s vertically to see what the light throw pattern looks like, might need a 90° rotated lens pattern that BD doesn't have yet.

Is the S2 a fog light? I was looking at ordering the dynamic diode ss3 and just seeing if they'd mount in there somehow....?

The S2 is a micro form factor 2 chip LED pod. Below are two S2 Pros flush in my Evil Mfg third brake light on my LWN Colorado. You can see the lens pattern is cut vertically, to disperse light horizontally.

If the light was rotated 90°, as it would need to be in the capable bumper, the lens pattern would be horizontal, dispersing light vertically, instead of where you want it. It may be not a big deal, but it might fill in a blank spot in your forward-facing lighting oriented correctly.

If that entire bezel section and OEM foglight is easily removable, the SS5 might fit in there and fill up the space pretty completely. Hard to say without one in hand, and mine is a Grangetober special, so unlikely to be seen that soon.

Nice, that's good info....so, on that Baja Design light, the light on the left is obviously not "cut" at all, so, how is if different from the one that is cut?

That's a good idea on removing the OEM Fog assembly and then having a bigger opening.....

I should have mine next week. Gonna take a close look at it.

That is just one of the Baja Designs multiple lens types, called the combo lens. It has one spot and one flood in clear. Here's an example of the different types in amber: dual spot, combo, dual flood. Same is available with clear lenses.

Both @Diode Dynamics and @Baja Designs produce modular lights, which means their lenses are swappable between amber/clear or spot/work/flood. You can buy them separate from the lights should you want to change things later.

Which one of these would work best for traditional fog light use?
