I’m going to go out on a limb here and say…Black Diamond doesn’t have that harness sitting in the bumper. I thought I was going crazy after @flip sent me that picture. But, I’m back out here and there isn’t any wiring/harness in that V-shaped channel just beyond the tow hook. That’s a bummer if it’s true.
Weird... Isn't capable bumper standard on BD in MY22? Why not MY21?
What about base trim I wonder... 🤷🏻

So front fogs 100% confirmed doable when pigtail is installed...
REALLY wanna know about rear fogs. How is this even an option on the Bronco, being just a North American vehicle?
I suspect it uses F150 headlight switch? Maybe even 150 BCM?

My guess is that it is something where you are going to have to wire it from the back, and then find the pins on the back of the connector for the corresponding pins on the switch. Unless it is already built-in due to the Middle Eastern ones they said they could ship...?

Probably the switch wiring is there... But you'll likely need a different BCM or wire directly into it.

I’m assuming 2022 will because Modular Bumper is no longer standard.
I’ll check our BD.

This is something I’m interested in. Could I add the factory fog lights and switch to my basequatch when it arrives? If so, what switch and wiring would I need? Thanks.

What is the expectation of how a rear fog is supposed to work? A friend's old Saab had a rear fog switch and all it did was make the driver rear tail brighter than the other side.

Yup, pretty typical... UK Ford's usually do the same. Only requires one side. See the same on Audi's and Volvo's...
I'd prefer a L/R version...
All depends. It's the same wattage as the brake lights, but not the brake lights 🤷🏻
My Evoque had 2 rear fogs... On the bumper, far away from the tail lights. Gives a better perspective on vehicle distance in inclement weather I think.

So I checked my BD and did not see any harness for a factory fog. Maybe the harness is something tied to the factory plastic bumper. I poked around a bit and nothing.

So if the BD doesn't have the harness... Maybe the Badlands also doesn't....? 😕
MY22's definitely will, but....

My 21 Badlands has the wiring for the lights too, just need to install my new switch and install some lights. Also I will be working on the rear fog option.

I'll poke around my BD more. Maybe it's well hidden.

I plan to hook up the Baja SAE Squadrons to front and eventually find a rear bumper that I like with additional reverse lights for the rear fogs.
Nice keep us posted on that. I also ordered a bd and looking to do the same.

For reference this is how I accessed it. I took the plastic trim off around the recovery point (four push pins hold it on and then it unclips on the ends).

This is on the passenger side. It’s hard to get a good view and angle of a solid reference where to look and where the plug actually is.

Excellent! This is a big help...
Thanks
