It is my impression that you can replacement lenses, either a different color (amber vs. clear) and or a different pattern (wide cornering vs. spot vs. combo). But I can only find the square replacement lenses on their site. I've been researching these a little bit and reading up on their subforum here, and a lot of times they suggest calling them when ordering so maybe the round replacement lenses are a call-to-order item? They plug and play into the existing light harness and you can use the stock fog light switch. The only disadvantage is they won't turn on with high beams, but not an issue for me.

My intention is to get the clear squadron r sports and an amber replacement lens (looks like they are around $15 each). The amber will go on in the winter months. But I didn't know they were redesigning the bezel to have a better fit in the stock bumper. that's good to know.

lens are the same for all the squadron lights. the bezel determines the shape (square vs round). you are correct about color and pattern though.

You're right best bet is to call them and talk to Bailey. He will help you through the whole process. Super nice guy @Baja Designs

The replacement lenses on our site for both Squadron and XL Series will fit the standard and round models. The difference between the Squadron and Squadron-R is the "R" model has a Round Bezel instead of the Square. The housing and internals of the light stays the same. Only the bezel is changed. Give me a call if you have any questions!

@Baja Designs is there a way i can adjust the squadron r-sport? Passenger side is higher than my drivers side. I have the Tacoma 2017 kit. Thanks

ptrlcop · May 17, 2017

I have the square sports. You have to get level with them and up close to even notice. I got a good deal on them so I wasn't worried about getting the rounds.

When I installed I thought about making my own shroud but after a month they don't bother me at all.

There is a small amount of adjustment in the bracket for this fog kit. You can aim the lights against a wall to ensure they are level. We recommend doing this from about 10 feet away.

How long did they take to install?

17taco4x4 · May 18, 2017

about 30 mins. It would've been faster but I'm not so great with wiring.

What is the specific light called from Baja design that I see used for our 3rd gen fogs?

I was considering getting the factory rigid industries, but it looks like they are underwhelming from what I've read.

I purchased the Rigid TRD PRO lights. Lights are very bright and build quality is exceptional.

17taco4x4 · May 18, 2017

Baja squadron r-sport are better than my stock TRD OR fogs. I'm happy with them. I ordered some Squadron PRO for my ditch. Can't wait @Baja Designs

Thanks.
I'm not either so It will probably take me 60 minutes.
Anybody know of an install video on 2nd gens?

sagexp · May 18, 2017

These will be a nice option for me for a wide pattern light if I need it. I want to try out the factory fogs along with the BD S8 20" which will go in the C4 LoPro when it comes in, but will need to figure out the wiring / relays to keep the fogs on when the high beams are on. Factory fogs may be fine for lighting up the sides, but won't know for sure until I get the new light bar on and get the fogs off the hi-beam lockout.

I have the sports crazy stupid bright I can't imagine what the Pro would do. Install took 15 minutes only one screw to take off to take old fog light out and to put new one in. I was able to reach down from inside the hood.
