Baja Designs: General Discussion Thread

Thanks. I’ll check those out. I have a neighbor who is an electrical engineer. He’s volunteered to help so I plan on using his knowledge so I don’t mess something up

 

Just a heads up, you may want to avoid this method when they are really cold- I just cracked my second Squadron rock guard with the pressing the center in -10c.. Brandon already had replacements sent from the last time so I’m set with spares now.

 

Can you just turn the lights on for 60 seconds before popping the cover off in really cold weather?

 

I will have to try that out...I cracked one of mine doing similar as well.

 

Would probably work if you're in a bind. I find prying of the top edge works good without flexing the front of the cover.
Lucky for me I park underground at work, so I just need to swap them while it's warmed up rather than out on the trail.

I took both the cracked ones and mended them with a touch of epoxy. They'll stay in the glove compartments as backups.

 

Correct - no harness is included on singular lights. We do include the opposite-side connector for easy wiring.

We can sell you the fog light adapters separate of our kits. They aren't available online but are available if you call 800-422-5292. Our team can process your order over the phone as well.

Hmmmm.... thinking about picking up a KLR650 after I buy a house this summer. May have to try something like this. Someone local put up a pair of LP9s for sale recently too!

 

Bailey @Baja Designs do you guys have any left over stock of the older style rock lights?
I’m looking for 1 blue rock light if you have one.

 

combos are nice where yo have them. Put some wide cornering in the fob locations. That how I am setup. combos up top and wide cornering down low.

 

Sorry, we don't. It's possible a larger Dealer/Distributor might have one in stock. Unfortunately, we don't have an easy way of tracking one down.

 

Appreciate the advice! That's what I was leaning towards as well.

 

That’s what I figured. Thanks man!

 

@Baja Designs I have received my lights to put them on my C4 hybrid bumper. Question, I ordered the squadron sports but they did not come with the wire adapters that plug straight into factory fog wiring on the truck. Do I purchase those separately? Also, I have the s8 light bar... question on that, do you sell any interior switch mounts for the main on/off switch to mount the switch to in the cab? Or do they fit in OEM slots already in the truck? Thank you!

 

The Squadron Sports only include the wiring adapters if you order a Plug and Play, Fog Pocket Kit. We can sell the adapters separate if you call us at 800-422-5292.

The switches require drilling to mount and will not fit the OEM locations. You can always change out the switch for something that looks a little more factory. Many customers have gone this route.

Lighting Zone: Off Road Enthusiast
These zones have been designed by Baja Designs: The Scientists of Lighting.

Zone 1 - Dust/Fog: This zone illuminates the area directly in front of the vehicle. Mounting these lights low on the bumper eliminates glare from dust and fog.

Zone 2 - Cornering: This zone provides cornering light which is necessary to drive comfortably at speed. By toeing these lights out 10°-15° a smooth field of light is achieved, eliminating the feeling of tunnel vision.

Zone 3 - Driving Combo: This zone is your primary driving light. These lights are mounted in the middle of the front bumper to avoid glare off of the hood or from dust and fog in front of the vehicle.

Zone 4 - Spot: This zone is your first level of long distance lighting. Lights intended for this zone will give you the distance needed to travel at speed. Combined with zone two lighting, a smooth transition is achieved creating less stress on your eyes.

Zone 5 - Racer Edition Spot: This zone is necessary for triple digit speeds, or wanting to see miles down the road. This is the only forward projection pattern we recommend mounting along your roofline (wider patterns can contribute to glare).

Zone 6 - Rock/Dome Lighting: This zone is used for wheel well lighting. This light is perfect for truck, jeep, buggy and UTV applications.

Zone 7 - Work/Scene: This is a true flood pattern. Excellent work light or “scene light” with an extremely smooth, round pattern. This pattern is not suitable for forward projection applications.

Zone 8 - Backup Lighting: This zone illuminates the area directly behind the rear of the vehicle. It is recommended that these lights be mounted on your rear bumper or cargo rack.

"Is the LP6 too large for the A-Pillars?"

This is a question we've been getting a lot lately. It comes down to vehicle application and personal preference on the look. Here is Collin Harper taking flight with a set of LP6's on the A-Pillars!

Just installed my XL80s. I think this is as large as I'd want to go.

For anyone thinking of getting the XL series
...they are awesome .



Replaced my Rigid ditch lights .

 

Waiting for a review of those LP9s!
