    Take a look at this post here (in fact, check out the front page links if you're curious about any type of LED fog pod you can think of):

    https://www.tacomaworld.com/posts/22622437

    Short answer, the white optic is brightest but due to some very clever engineering by DD, the yellow optic is not very far behind (about 90% as bright). However, the yellow optic will be much more useful in poor weather, as warmer light is less glaring and fatiguing to the eye. In my opinion, the 6000K white pro light is just a touch too blue. If you insist on the white light, consider a custom optic swap. By using the 4000K LEDs in the yellow lamp paired with the clear optics swapped in, you can get a nice warm white that is much friendlier to the eye. Here are my driving lights to get an idea of the color:

    I got white SAE Pro’s and amber covers. Best of both worlds. The yellow outputted by the covers is closer to a BD yellow instead of a darker yellow produced by the DD yellow LED’s. I prefer the lighter yellow and the ability to swap colors whenever

    How do you get the covers to snap onto the diagonal bezels for the factory fog location? I think they only make them for the round and square bezels.

    I got the standard square fogs for my aftermarket bumper, I should’ve clarified that. I believe they may still work but I don’t know for sure

    Are these the normal 3" or round or angled?

    Those ones are the angled variety.

    Do you think that would be the ideal shape for that bumper, I have a similar to cbi T3 bumper on order and I'm looking for the best fit for the fogs.

    @Diode Dynamics is there any chance your 14-19 Silverado 1500 ditch light brackets fit a 16 suburban/Tahoe?

    I have some SS3 pros I was going to install on my wife’s 18 Sierra with SDHQ brackets but traded it on a suburban since our family is growing. The SDHQ brackets won’t fit being fender mounted but I’m hoping yours being hood hinge brackets might.

    Installed a set of SS3 Sports in my 2015. Could only get one of the screws to go back in through the back of the mount to where the OEM fogs screw into the back of the bumper. Normal? The second hole was off by a good bit.

    I’ve got to crawl back under there to tinker with the alignment anyway. They aren’t quite even.

    Correct. Even the OEM one has 2 holes, but only uses one screw. This bracket is used for multiple different Toyota vehicles :thumbsup:
