    Table for fitment reads that they won't fit the '21, but would a '20 - I'm good right? they didn't do anything under the hood between the years?

    Note, if you want to install ditch lights in the future I suggest getting the brackets and install at the same time.

    I use them sometimes when going out to my parents in the boonies because there are a lot of deer that run near where they live.

    I am getting ready to get ditch lights for the same thing deer in the boonies. Do you run LED or Amber? I would think LED is best for this purpose but maybe you have some words of experience and wisdom to share. Also are you running spot or combo?
