Ditch/Hood Light Bracket - Ultimate Guide & Poll (Pictures)

Looks like this thread is a little older... what companies have updated their product lines to offer a hood mount that works good with squadron pro's.
Looking for a quality bracket that's bolt on and low profile. Not wanting to do any drilling tapping for cutting.

 

To my knowledge, all brackets have been designed to be universal and accept any ditch light sized light with a “single bolt” securing it to the actual bracket. This would include the squadron pro from Baja Designs. The most popular DL bracket seems to be the @CaliRaisedLed which I believe updated their design about 1-2 years ago.

 

Thank you for the tag, our low profile ditch brackets are 100% bolt on and require no drilling or cutting and hold the light perfect with no interference or problem. Plus its 15% off right now. Please let me know if you have any questions.

 

Do you guys have any pictures from Inside the cab as to what the driver sees while driving. Not the light output but the actual light pod housings themselves

 

A quick Google search and I found this. Scroll down to the 4th picture.

I run the Rago Fab ones....love em and they are SOLID! Through wheeling and camping trips they are ROCK SOLID....I can't say enough good things about them!

 

I am very fussy about anything blocking my field of view. I installed the low profile CaliRaised ditch lights about a month back and I have no issues. They do not create any blind spots for me. That was a big concern of mine prior to installing them.

That picture from the above link on the 4 Runner seemed to stick up and bother me and did not represent my view in my 2019 TRD Sport.

Here is a YouTube video - Go to the 2:30 mark to view from my new truck with the ditch lights installed. The camera is behind the rear view mirror. That would be slightly forward and say 2-3 inches higher than my sitting eye position. Its is close but not exact.

 

I’m a gonna get this ......

 

looks pretty awesome. Post some pictures when you have them installed and I will update the original post to include the KC ditch light and bracket option.

I also added the KC ditch light bracket to the voting poll.

 

I’m having a difficult time trying to figure all this out . After researching a lot I find the connection on the rear of the KC Flex is not great .Im now thinking Rigid ? Or Baja ? But on their website lights do not come in a kit with brackets . Would really like to order from one vendor and be done

 

I just ordered these last night and paid full price lol

 

As in the rear connection of wiring to the back of the light housing?

Also you might be able to buy a combo kit (ditch bracket and light) through @RelentlessFab or another vendor. Most of the fabricators sell combo kits. I'd say just find the style of bracket you'd like and see if the vendor will pair it with lights they stock.

 

Yes ,wire at back of light housing. Still looking

 

Just got my CaliRaise LoPro and some Baja S1's installed over the weekend.. can't go wrong there..

 

That looks nice, super low profile. Any chance you can post a pic from the cab to see how visible they are from the drives eye-line?

 

I'll get something for ya later on, sure. You can't see the driver's side unless you make an effort, passenger is barely noticeable but obviously in the range of view better than the drivers... really like this low profile setup and the baja throw light like crazy, still building my bussman panel but had to temp them into my lightbar switch just to see what I paid for. Super happy with the setup.

 

Awesome, that would be very much appreciated. Think I will end up ordering the same brackets.

 

Thanks for choosing us

 

I went with the Cali Raised also. I like them. What I am looking for now is a way to mount an NMO antenna next to the light. I currently have it in front, just a bit down the hood-line and it reflects the light pretty bad.

 

What’s the best option for Rigid 360 4”?
