    I found some take off 2023 led fogs. Was wondering if they are the same connections as my 2017? They are $75 was going to offer them $50. Is it even worth the upgrade?
    Thanks

    should be same connections. I removed my OEM LED fogs and installed Diode Dynamics so to me, buying the oem ones would not be worth it

    OEM LED fogs are "okay", but still aren't great. That said, they should drop right in, and plugs should all work!

    I put 2023 OEM led fogs in my 2019. Same connections, no issues. I also found them on here for $55

    Also 3rd party stuff like Diode Dynamics are gonna be brighter, have multiple options but you do pay $200-$300 for those.

    For me $55 bux for the OEM was worth the upgrade. They light up the road well and I don’t have plans currently to get anything brighter

    +1 for DD Elites. For $50 the oem's would be a worthwhile upgrade over the stock reflector housings, but any more and I'd just throw on DD's - pretty sure they outperform my Motimoto XB 2.0 headlights (which are pretty damn amazing for pnp).

    Lots of people think they aren't worth the time. +1 for DD Elites. The OEM LED takeoffs are cheap for a reason.

    they are brighter and dont burn out
    and $50 vs $250-$650 seems worth something
    some people dont need 1800 lumens

    Time wise, my install took 20 min. Just gotta reach under there and having a flashlight was handy

    Each light is held on by 1 bolt and couple tabs. Plug and play.

    I put amber Lamin-x over the lens on mine, very simple upgrade.
