Does anyone know the approximate lumen output of the stock headlights? Trying to get some comparison between headlights and other lights like a-pillar or fogs.

The answer to this largely depends on placement and mission.@4x4TruckLEDs.com Thanks for the reply. I'm really trying to understand how much extra light I'd get from a pair of Baja squadron SAE white fogs. Are they gonna put out more light than my headlights (understanding directed differently). Then go a step further to determine if I should just go sports instead of SAE as a fog or is it too bright. While the SAE are legal I would doubt I'd have any issues with a properly aimed sport regardless.
Definitely wide throw of an OEM fog. I should have clarified I was considering the sports with a wide cornering lens in the mod bumper pocket.The answer to this largely depends on placement and mission.
Are you looking to get the wide-throw functionality of OEM foglights on the lower bumper? Then the SAE Squadrons mounted low would make a lot of sense. If you're after the most light, then bumper or bull bar mounted Squadron Sport combo lenses, or are you looking at the ditch light style of A-pillar style mounts for off-direction-of-travel light throw?
Hence the BD lighting zone chart.
Well the Baja SAE Fogs are FOG LIGHTS. They are not headlights. So you will gain some coverage right in front of the truck but it's not designed to go down range.@4x4TruckLEDs.com Thanks for the reply.
