Would you mind leeting me know what the (2) plastic extension pieces that hang down below the bumper attach to? I purchased the Raptor bumper end caps and I was hoping that they mounted to those, but they do not. Thank you!
I think they go into the foglight housing/ shroud, but one may go into the bumper endcap. I can get you a picture Saturday if no one else does.

Ford Bronco DIY: Raptor Fog Lights Installed on Standard Bronco 578AC55A-6BAA-4556-A592-DD18C8794BD5


Here’s my 2door Badlands (mid package, came with modular bumper so no front parking sensor/camera/fog light harness) Just swapped in the entire Raptor bumper that already had the Rigid lights in it. For the harness I bought the SPV OEM plug and play and hooked it up to Aux 5 and 6

So I bought a braptor front bumper with the 4 lights. My bronco is a BB with the foglights. If I buy the lights from 21 offroad ( https://www.21offroad.com/collectio...eel-bumper-2021-bronco?variant=44095158190303 ) can just use the wiring harness from that kit and will my raptor fogs plug directly into that harness and I just wire them to my upfitter (sp) switches and not have to mess with making a harness etc?

Do you have the PN for the SPV harness you bought? Im in the same boat. Have a BB with foglights and bought a bronco raptor bumper with lights and want to do the same thing.

If you’re a sucker for a clean OEM look just like me and thinking of installing fog lights into the modular bumper of your Bronco, this write-up is for you.

1681776334464.png

I completed this installation more than a month ago but didn’t have time to post a write-up. It took me 2 months to figure out what parts I needed, gather them, and put everything together. A huge shout out to @flip for helping me out with part numbers. I had this plan since I purchased my Bronco in November of 2022. My OBX has the Lux package, so it came with the preinstalled fog light harness but empty fog light pockets in the modular bumper.


1681776345884.png

I managed to acquire a pair of take offs through FB. I joined the Bronco Raptor group and started to browse through photos looking for one that had aftermarket fog lights. It didn’t take me longer than 10 minutes to come across the one I was looking for and sent a message to the owner hoping he would want to sell the stock fogs to me. I didn’t try to low ball him and offered $300 which he kindly accepted.



1681776373311.png

The fog lights were in mint condition, but the back covers and wire harness didn’t come with them because those parts stayed in the Braptor. After doing some investigation into missing parts, I reached out to @flip to make sure I have the correct list of part numbers. The problem was that the part catalog didn’t have any visuals of the Braptor bumper back then, so we could only guess what parts I needed to order.

I ordered a pair of back covers (N2DZ17E810A and N2DZ17E811A) from Ruxer store. They cost me $40. By test-fitting the fog lights in the mod bumper, I realized that I would also need the Braptor bumper end caps because those on my truck didn’t have designated mounting points. Flip sent me the part numbers for those (N2DZ-17E784-AA and N2DZ-17E785-AA). The new Braptor end caps cost me $350. Of course, Ford sells them without any fasteners, so I also had to buy 8 cage nuts (W717086-S439) and a pack of M6 x 1.0 T30 bolts.

Since the fog lights didn’t come with the wire harness, I either had to buy it from Ford or fabricate it myself. I decided to go with the latter option. If I went with the OEM part, I would have to modify it anyway. The fog lights on Braptor are operated by two switches: the outer pair is controlled by the fog light switch and the inner pair by an upfitter switch. I wanted to connect both pairs to the fog light switch (M2DZ-11654-DC) which was also purchased for this project ($70).

I didn’t want to replace the male connectors on the lights or the output connector in the bumper, but when I saw the price of the OEM parts, I realized that I need to come up with a cheaper solution. Each pigtail connector would cost me around $50 and I needed 10 of those – 5 for each side. I needed to identify the connectors Ford used for this wire harness. I’m not an auto electrician or engineer and don’t know what suppliers auto manufacturers use, but Google helped me solve this puzzle. The factory connectors turned out to be Molex MX150. I bought them directly from the country that makes them – which is China. They were around $3 a piece on Aliexpress which was much lower than the $50 Ford wanted.


1681776646777.png

I crimped the pin connectors onto a 16AWG wire and ran it through loom tubing for additional protection and OEM look.


1681776679527.png

1681776689434.png

I’m not sure if the push pins I ordered (W714584S300) were the correct ones because they seemed to be slightly longer than needed and didn’t sit tight. I solved this problem by placing 3/4 OD X 3/8" ID X 1/8" rubber washers on them.



1681776699129.png

I bolted the fog lights into the end caps before installing them on the Bronco because the Sasquatch wheels don’t leave much space for wrenching in the wheel well. After installing the end caps on the bumper, you will only need to screw in one last bolt on each side. This bolt goes through the top eyelet on the fog light assembly and into the cage nut that you need to insert in the square hole in the upper portion of the bumper.


1681776717877.png

Once everything is installed and wired, you’re going to need to program the fog lights with Forscan to make them work.

Here are the setting you need to save:


BdyCM Configuration

• Front fog lamps - change this to "Enabled".

• Fog Lamp Switch - change this to "Enabled"



IPC

• Front fog lamps - change this to "Enabled"



BdyCM (As-Built Configuration)

• 726-42-01-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx - Change the green value to 0101

1681776770781.png

I hope this write-up will be of help to those who decide to go the same route. It’s not the cheapest and easiest options, but as I already mentioned, it was important to me to achieve that clean OEM look.

Great job, and thanks for your posting! 👍

Anyone have the part numbers of the raptor fog lights they installed?
