    @Diode Dynamics, how do these compare to the TRD Pro Rigid Industries fog lights and Baja Designs Squadron Sport? My brother is interested in either the Baja Squadron Sport or the Diode Dynamics

    These are much brighter. Im waiting to buy a set once the 05-11 kit comes out. Currently best lights on the market in output and quality seems to be impeccable.

    I thought there was already an 05-11 kit. I just bought some ditch lights and was going to do my fog lights at the same time

    It’s in production. Hoping they come out soon because I’ve been dying to order them. BD makes an 05-11 kit already but I’d much rather spend the extra money and get these which are much brighter.

    Will the 05-11 kit be a "direct replacement," or will I have to cut away some of the housing to make it fit?

    It is supposed to be a direct replacement for the OEM fog just like the 2012-19 model is. I think It is a bracket that is the custom part between the different vehicle models you see on their site.

    From everything that I have seen on here,they are awesome and owners of different vehicles love them too.

    Yea, my understanding is that it's a direct fit.

    @Diode Dynamics any word on production now that china's manufacturing numbers are back to where they were pre-covid?

    Thanks for helping with the questions guys! It has been very busy here recently. To answer the question about output: we did collect output shots of our lights next to factory along with major competitors. Photos are not altered in any way, all taken with the same camera settings as listed at the bottom. Thanks!

    Ok so I finally got around to installing my bumper along with a set of Sport sae/dot fogs and I have to say these are bad ass! These look great and are incredibly well built! I’m completely blown away by the quality!

    I am in need of a new set of fog lights. I just had a rock break one of mine yesterday on the way to San Diego.
    I love the yellow just torn on sport vs pro
    Any Thoughts.

    When the 05-11 kits come out I’m getting the pro’s because it’s not a huge price gap for the extra output you gain

    Ordered some G4’s I’ll be returning to snag some SS3 pros.

    does anyone know where some can be found online since the website says 3-4 weeks away. Also, what “mounting type” is used for 12-15 models? Seen a couple different types, but nothing on the website of which type it comes with.

    @Diode Dynamics any update on when things may be back in stock?

    I live in the city and usually try to limit my law enforcement interaction ;) I love leaving my fogs on all the time!

    Cops in my area are cool and they’re SAE compliant so I wouldn’t be worried if I got pulled over. I know a bunch of the local cops anyways they’re good men and women.
