    If you haven't seen it, this is one of the most popular ditch light upgrades trending online using our products!

    Due to the design of our SS3 universal bracket, you can bolt our SSC1 LED pod directly to the side of the bracket for additional output.

    If you plan to have your SS3 and SSC1 LED pods backlight and main beam operate together, you'll need our DT 4-Pin Splitter Wire.

    If you prefer to have independent control over your SS3 and SSC1 LED pods, you'll need to wire them using separate 4-Pin Wiring Harnesses.

    cute, but a light forward facing in that position glares off the hood back in the drivers eyes

    Yes, ditch lights are designed to be aimed outward away from the vehicle.

    However, working in the lighting industry it's highly popular to have forward-facing lights on ditch light brackets to utilize as an auxiliary high beam.

    In addition, our products use TIR optics which cuts down hood glare compared to traditional reflector optic pods.
