Modular Bumper: Three Fog Lights

[Emilian]

We got Rigid, one is street legal and remaining two (spot and driving) are offroad only.

I went with Baja Designs 3 light combo - amber SAEs + S2 Pro + Squadron Pro. Really like the set-up thus far

I went with @4x4TruckLEDs.com because their bracket is the best aesthetically and they have a great rep (for good reason!).

I opted for
Diode Dynamics Triple Fog Light Kit w/KR Off-Road Bezel/Flush Brackets for 2021+ Ford Bronco (HD Modular Bumper)
(1st Pair: SS3 Max, White SAE Fog (+$300), 2nd Pair: SSC2 Pro, White Combo (+$100), 3rd Pair: SSC2 Pro, Yellow SAE Fog (+$100), Upgrade SS3 to Backlit Version: Yes (+$40), Harness Choice: All-In-One Upfitter Harness)


My only regret is not getting projector beams hammered out first, as the projectors blow the factory headlights away in terms of light cast, esp to the sides! Form lighting is highly recommended. Even the SAE fogs get me flashed occasionally, despite proper alignment.

We're new to the off-road/adventure world. We just bought a '24 Wiltrak that has the modular bumper. It's currently a pavement princess, but looking to eventually get out for some overlanding. Looking at putting three sets of lights for "fog lights." I like the Rigid D-series and seen a lot of different combinations of amber, spots, driving, SAE, etc. Can someone walk me through the benefits of each, or is it just personal preference?

I put on the Rough Country lights

Very happy with them so far, super bright.

Heretic lights...Bronco nation has a member discount through their website. Pretty much everybody is going to say the company they spent their money on is the best. Don't forget to check out Heretic. The best time of year to buy these lights would be Black Friday. Good luck in your search. I edited this to add any kind of lights that you buy will have a diminishing return on your investment (unless they're headlights or SAE fog lights of course) They are incredibly expensive for how much you'll use them.

I have Heretic triple fog lights. They've been fully submerged, covered in ice, mud, and what not many times. Still perform like champs.

With the modular bumper, the OEM fog circuit is there. You can adapters to connect to DT connectors on aftermarket lights (like heretic, many others), and swap the dash light control box out for the one with the fog button. A few changes in FORScan and you’ve got your fogs powered by the OEM circuitry like it was stock equipment and save an upfitter switch.

with the Heretic lights, I have the two lights per side white led, and connected to the OEM fog circuit. The single Quattro per side is amber and connected to an upfitter switch.

Thanks for this write up. I went down the rabbit hole of the fog button yesterday, which I don’t have. So sounds like I need a new control switch, forscan changes. Good to know the harness is already there. I like the idea of white lights on the fog switch and then ambers on an Aux switch.

We offer the pigtails for the Baja Designs and Diode Dynamics kits we sell btw. This allows you to utilize that factory wiring/fog switch

Selecting lighting can seem overwhelming or sometimes challenging, but dont stress too much on it! With the right direction and some guidance, you can easily get the right set up to meet your needs all around.

Lots of folks have already given some good advice so we wont go repeating a ton of information. But what we can do is offer some more advice if you need some in depth assistance! We began as a lighting company and still hold strong in that category with knowledge to get folks where they need to be.

For brands, you really have some great options out there. Diode, Morimoto, Baja; all are great in their own way. There of course will be some differences between each of them (because every brand has to stick out on its own somehow) but for the most part each of them will achieve what you need. We personally are running the Diode triple pod kit on our shop build.

If you need some help please message or call us anytime! And for what its worth, Diode and Morimoto just kicked off on sale today on our website. 20% off plus free shipping and theres no sales tax. Plus Bronco owners can get a Free Hotshot T Shirt with qualifying purchases! Let us know if we can help at all.

I went with the Heretic brand for my Wildtrak.

I considered Heretic as they also make quality product. Can't go wrong with your selection!

Hey, Chad!
No need to stress over the wiring aspect of it all. That is actually what we specialize in. We have a FULLY Patented Plug-and-Play Harness System that is extremely adaptable to pretty much any circumstance you can come up with, and it makes install a breeze. We have done many posts on here regarding different ways to run your setup to work best for your specific needs and wants. We also have a YouTube Channel with many helpful videos.
Here are links to a couple of our Bronco videos, but you can feel free to peruse the entire channel for other videos that may help you to form a visual to what you are hoping to achieve.

We have the Oracle Lights. I'm happy with the output of the lights and the mounting system.

But the darn lights are always getting water in them and customer service just tells me to remove the vent on the back. this requires full remove of the mounting bracket.

If I replace them I will be going with KC or Diode

Yeas, mine leaked in the beginning but have been doing good for a year..they unfogged themselves. Great road light out of these.

I went with the back lit rigid lights. I have the center light as a fog road legal light. The other two lights on both sides are not DOT approved and for off-road use. I wired the center fog light into my standard light switch. SPV was the company I used for my harnesses. They were great to work with.

Word of warning if you're planning on running any sort of radio (particularly 2m/440 ham) then skip the diode dynamics selection of ss3 and ss5's as they have zero RFI shielding. Can't vouch for the ssc2's but i'm sure they're the same

I've never had issues on any of my trucks rocking Diode Dynamics lights. In fact, i've had 1 customer say the same about Morimoto but I was unable to duplicate that issue.

So it honestly comes down to a particular truck and how things are wired.

To date we've sold more lights on Broncos then anybody and I can tell you we've only had ONE CUSTMOER ever reach out to us about an issue (the customer with the Morimoto 4Bangers on his pillars)
