    At the moment I’m waiting for my Hybrid bumper to arrive! Did you plug n play for your fogs and do you have part numbers for the brackets you purchased? Thanks!

    I had originally purchased their fog kit which came with the plug and play harnesses. https://www.diodedynamics.com/ss3-universal-bracket-kit.html

    Do you use a lens cover to make it look like that on your roof rack light bar. Both amber and white

    Nothing too special for the moment, just some SS3 Sport fogs. I'm starting to look into ditch lights and am considering DD, although spendier stuff like BD is also catching my eye for strictly-off-road lighting.

    I would recommend DD for the simple fact that the DD's do not drop in output as much as they stabilize in temperature. Diode Dynamics has a youtube video comparing the SSC2 and BD S2 where they show that happening. In fact the BD S2 Pro after a period of runtime end up just barely brighter than the S2 Sport and if I recall, the DD SSC2 sport was brighter than both after that same amount of time. The SSC2 Pro was way brighter. I can't link the video since I'm on my work computer and youtube is blocked, sorry.

    Do you plan on canting the lights out to the sides 45ish deg for true ditch lighting, or are you planning to aim ahead for just overall support?

    The goal will be to have true ditch lights and help illuminate areas around the truck.
