Diode Dynamics SAE Fogs Installed on Badlands Modular Bumper

[Mattwings]

Added some Diode Dynaics SAE fog lights. Wired them to Aux Switch 2. Process was simple, worked great! I have found fog lights are the most needed auxiliary lighting in my use. I will probably add some spots and reverse lights, but these were the most important add on for me (so far). It took some 16ga wire, wire loom, zip ties and a few hand tools. Spent about an hour , but was being slow and careful. Light quality seems excellent, build quality was good, I will report back as I get some experience with them.

The Bronco bolts are up front and they didn’t extend past the hard points on the bumper, so I didn’t try and fab a different mount. There is definitely room to recess them.

I’m definitely waiting for Rigid Industries to come up with a mount to fit in there. I prefer to have them recessed, but I do plan on installing lights down there eventually.

Well done!

Looks good Matt!

Sweet, I'm anxious to hear you thoughts after some nighttime use. SAE fogs are on my to do list.

I ordered the baja designs squadron from
@Nick@Apollo-Optics and he was great to deal with. I think the will sit back further and fit the look i want.

These Baja Designs are what I've been looking at but have always thought DD were a better light. If only they made a pocket kit like BD.

Nice work! Looks great! Congrats

Does that eliminate the ability to remove the ends?

No but the lights will poke out a bit

Does anyone make fog lights that don’t look like they came from a lego store? I prefer a clean factory look.

Thus the reason I’m waiting for Rigid Industries. They will have some nice lights out soon enough. I know their lights aren’t cheap, but they are awesome and pretty much the only lights I use on my vehicles (so far).

I have these on a different vehicle. I highly recommend them. The cutoff is great and the sports are plenty bright for on road.

The beam pattern doesn't look like a fog light - fogs usually just light a little on the ground right in front
