    Does anyone have these lights installed? If so, how do you like them?

    I's there a front bumper/grill area mounting solution?

    Can they be setup for both low and high-beam use? Or are they meant for high-beam only?

    i have the DOT fogs. currently i stall in my 2014 4runner and they are pretty damn good. super wide beam. i have a set for my tacoma just waiting for my pelfrey bumper to come in to get it all installed.

    if you go with those u linked above id try to find a place in the lower valance area to mount. if you use them with your low beams and in the grill area i could see that being a problem with the popo..

    They are true fogs. I wouldn't say they would be good for high and low. Very diffused.

    Hi Pcyc, they have both fog and driving lights available. I'm interested in the driving lights

    Hi All, Just checking in to see if anyone has learned of any mounting bracket solutions for the RIGID SAE Compliant Driving Light Set (E-Series 6") ?? I'd love to mount them under the bumper / between the fogs but RIGID doesn't sell a bracket for these lights yet (at least not that I can find).

    Go find a fabricator should be easy.

    Can't tell from the photo but are those mounted behind the plastic in the lower valance or did you cut out the plastic?

    Hi Gus, the plastic grid set back a bit was cut out to make room to mount the lights. The bumper was removed, plastic cut and lights bolted/locked through. They sit nice and firmly between the state plate.

    I also had them wired directly to the high_beams. Perfect light for those dark roads.

    Too many to list now.
    High Beam only on those, and they're amazing. They're DOT compliant as long as you aren't driving around with them on all the time. It is only meant for a high beam. The DOT fogs are nice because you can leave them on all the time without raising any issues. Very directional beam pattern with a VERY distinct cutoff as to not blind oncoming traffic.
